Aider
Overview
Aider allows you to pair program with LLMs directly in your terminal, whether you are starting a new project or working on an existing codebase. It builds a map of your entire repository to understand complex project structures and can edit multiple files in a single coordinated change. The tool supports over 100 programming languages and integrates seamlessly with Git to automatically commit changes with sensible messages. Beyond text, Aider accepts voice commands and can process images and web pages for visual context. It works with a wide variety of cloud and local models by connecting to your own API keys, and can be used from within your favorite IDE by adding comments to your code.
