Cody.

Cody is an AI programming assistant from code search and browsing tool 'Sourcegraph' that helps developers write code and answer questions by reading entire codebases and code graphs.Cody uses Sourcegraph's code graphs andLarge Language Models (LLMs)portfolio to eliminate tedious tasks in manual development and maintain developer workflow.

You can think of Cody as your code assistant, the automated programming tool has read all the code in open source, all the questions on StackOverflow, and the developer's entire codebase, and can answer questions encountered during development or suggest ways to do things based on prior knowledge.

Cody's main functions

Cody is like the code editor in ChatGPTthat can help you program better and faster.

1. Artificial Intelligence for Code Generation.Cody generates everything from sample code to API parsers based on the context and style of the codebase, as well as fixing bugs, readability, or unprocessed edge cases in blocks of code.
2. Automatic generation of unit tests.Cody can write unit tests, saving developers time to focus on building the software.
3. Interpreting code information.Cody can explain what the code does at a high level or in detail, highlighting any block of code or an entire file to explain what is happening in conversational language.
4. Programming Language Translation. A developer can provide Cody with a code snippet, such as a function, and Cody can translate the code to provide a code snippet in another language with the same functionality.

How to use Cody

Using Cody is very easy, and Cody is currently available on Sourcegraph's web pages and in VS Code.

1. Installing the Cody extension for VS Code
2. Open Cody (from the Activity Bar or Alt + / or Opt + /) and login
3. Click on Chat or Recipes (some of the built-in commands) to use the
