It’s 2023. You should be at least 50% more productive than last year with all the AI tools that came up.
Here are 7 open-source tools that you can add to your development workflow to be faster and more productive. These tools go from simple code completion, to full fledged app builders.
Feel free to explore these projects, contribute to your favorites, and support them by starring their repositories.๐
๐ค continue
If you’ve used the Cursor editor, Continue is the closest to what you can get in open-source.
Continue serves as an open-source code copilot, acting as an IDE extension that integrates into VS Code and JetBrains.
It facilitates autocompletion, answers coding queries, enables editing in natural language, file generation from scratch, and debugging errors/exceptions. It employs GPT-4 and GPT-3.5-turbo via the OpenAI API but is configurable to use other LLM.
A cool feature is its error understanding functionality which, when triggered, throws the stack trace into Continue to explain the issue to the userโ.
๐๏ธ gpt-pilot
GPT Pilot helps expedite app development by 20x.
You define your app idea, and GPT Pilot handles the restโsetting up the environment, coding, and even seeking your review after each task.
It’s like having a coder to handle the legwork while you oversee the project.
This project explores GPT-4’s potential in creating production-ready apps, with the belief that AI can handle 95% of the code, while developers cover the remaining 5% (till we achieve full AGIโ1โ at least).
๐ auto-commit
auto-commit is a super simple CLI tool that will auto-generate commit messages for you. Not the biggest game-changer, but that’s something less to think about!
// Detect dark theme
var iframe = document.getElementById(‘tweet-1587127315317723136-861’);
if (document.body.className.includes(‘dark-theme’)) {
iframe.src = “https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?id=1587127315317723136&theme=dark”
}
๐๏ธ ChatDev
ChatDev is like a virtual software company run by AI agents embodying various rolesโfrom CEOs to programmers, all collaborating to “revolutionize the digital world through programming.” It offers a customizable, extendable framework based on LLMs, ideal for exploring collective intelligence.
๐งโ๐ TabbyML
Tabby is a self-hosted AI coding assistant, presenting an open-source and on-premises alternative to GitHub Copilot. Its key features include being self-contained with no need for a DBMS or cloud service, an OpenAPI interface for easy integration with existing infrastructure like Cloud IDEs, and support for laptop GPUs.
๐ localpilot
localpilot is a local proxy that allows you to use the native GitHub Copilot with local open-source models such as Mistral-7b or CodeLlama. By plugging directly into the native GitHub copilot extension, you can easily switch between models if they don’t satisfy your needs.
This also allows you to use GitHub Copilot offline (finally!).
