Twinny

About Twinny

Twinny is an AI code completion extension for Visual Studio Code. It operates locally, ensuring your code remains private, and is designed to enhance code completion tasks with seamless integration with Ollama. This straightforward plugin is comparable to Github Copilot, but the difference lies in its cost-effectiveness and privacy. It comes at no charge and ensures total user confidentiality. Once twinny and Ollama are installed in Visual Studio Code, they work together to provide users with an interactive coding assistant that suggests code in real time. Users will be able to tell the system is operational through an icon at the bottom of the editor, showing what models are running. Twinny supports multiple programming languages, offering features like configurable endpoint and port for Ollama API, auto code completion, chat feature like Copilot Chat, viewing differences for code completions, and accepting solutions directly to the editor. Your chat history with twinny is preserved per conversation, allowing for easy reference. The extension is easy to install, ensures fast and accurate code completions, and is freely available.
