The Autocompletion feature in CodeVista leverages the latest language models to provide accurate and intelligent code completion suggestions as you type. This can significantly improve your coding efficiency and productivity.

1. Enabling Autocompletionโ€‹

  • Autocompletion is enabled by default when you install and launch the CodeVista extension in Visual Studio Code.
  • No additional setup or configuration is required.

2. Triggering Autocompletionโ€‹

  • As you type code in your editor, CodeVista will automatically suggest completions for the current line or function you're working on.
  • The autocompletion suggestions will appear as fuzzy text following the content you are coding.

3. Autocompletion Scopeโ€‹

  • CodeVista's Autocompletion feature works across a wide range of programming languages, configuration files, and documentation formats.
  • It can complete single lines of code, entire functions, or even larger code blocks, depending on the context.
  1. Accepting Suggestions
    • In some cases, CodeVista may provide single or multiple lines autocompletion suggestions.
    • To accept an autocompletion suggestion, you can hit theย Tabย to insert the desired suggestion.
  2. Limitations and Known Issues
    • While the Autocompletion feature is highly accurate, it may occasionally make incorrect suggestions or miss certain edge cases.
