Write code with precision, hand bigger jobs to agents, and keep working from anywhere
Agents open the repository, form a plan, edit multiple files and explain the changes so you can review each diff before accepting it. You can also run several agents in parallel to push a backlog forward.
Point the editor at Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft or open-weight models, or bring your own key. Pick the Copilot, Claude or Codex harness that matches how you like to work.
JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML and CSS work out of the box, and Marketplace extensions add IntelliSense, linting, refactoring and debuggers for Python, Java, C++, Go, Rust and more.
Integrated terminal, source control, debugger, testing, Jupyter notebooks, an integrated browser and Dev Containers all live in one window, so you stay close to the code.

Context-aware AI that plans, codes, tests, and documents across your engineering workflows
Import code from GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket and save project knowledge such as schemas, APIs, and files so AI responses reflect your real codebase via vector search.
Generate frontend, backend, and full-stack code, explain existing logic, debug issues, and produce tests directly from a shared AI workspace.
Generate readable documentation from a repository or a specific set of files, and document MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS-SQL, MariaDB, or MongoDB schemas that can be kept up to date.
Build bots that answer technical questions using your workspace context, test their responses, and deploy them to team channels with minimal setup.
