Hey Hunters, I'm excited to launch Rubberduck, which brings ChatGPT to the Visual Studio Code side bar! Rubberduck can 🤖 generate code 📝 edit code 📚 explain code 🧪 generate tests 🐛 find bugs 🕵️‍ diagnose errors The best part is that Rubberduck is 100% open source and you can even add your own conversation templates. All you need is an OpenAI API key. I hope that Rubberduck can help you automate tedious work and make coding easier. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

@asaskevich I stumbled upon it when I added chat support to the AI code explanations in a VS Code different extension (inspired by ChatGPT). I was amazed by how useful such a feature could be and turned it into a standalone extension, and then started to add more functions.

So far have you seen more people using it for convenience (I know how to do this, but this is faster) or for overcoming challenges (I'm not sure how to do this, let's see how the AI would do it)?

@david_glass I would say it's both. For me personally, the most amazing experience was when I translated a JS lib that I had created into Python. I'm not a Python developer and used Rubberduck constantly, from questions to code translations to fixing things. I was able to translate the library into Python and had it working in a few hours, despite very limited prior Python knowledge.

@lars_grammel1 That's an awesome use case. Fits the mold of highly manual and pretty hard based on your python knowledge at that point. Just a brainstorm, but I'm curious how this may work differently if you focused super specifically on that use case of translating code from one language to another?

@david_glass my take is that you'd ideally use fine-tuned models for that. Rubberduck is taking an open source approach with standard foundation models, which gives pretty good performance out of the box (and it'll get better with future foundation models), but fine-tuned models are out of reach.

Fantastic work on getting your product on the Product Hunt! I'll give this product a go. I just wanna clarify one thing. What was the most challenging part of the process?

Does Rubberduck require any additional installation or configuration to work with Visual Studio Code?

@anjali11 the only thing that you need besides vs code and the rubberduck extension is an OpenAI API key.

Great job @lars_grammel1! I had the opportunity to test your product today, and I must say it's the most impressive GPT extension for VS Code available in the market. The feature that stands out the most is the ability to select code, prompt an edit, and visualize the differences, which is simply mind-blowing!
