Holy Grail: FREE Coding Assistant That Can Build From EXISTING CODE BASE
UPDATE: I forgot a step in the install process. After cloning the repo and creating/activating the conda env, you have to install Aider by using “pip install aider-chat” or “pip install -r requirements.txt”
In this video, we review Aider, which is an AI coding assistant that can build entire codebases as well as iterate on existing code! Aider uses Universal CTags to map an existing codebase to provide all context to ChatGPT to help build on that codebase. It’s truly amazing. I’ll show you how to install and use it.
Enjoy 🙂
