+= Coding Assistant
+The Coding Assistant is an AI-powered tool that helps you write and edit code more efficiently. It offers features like code suggestions, autocompletion, and error detection, improving productivity and reducing mistakes. It can be easily integrated into your development environment for smarter coding support.
+
+== Continue
+Continue is a leading open-source AI code assistant. It comes with features like https://docs.continue.dev/chat/how-to-use-it[Chat], https://docs.continue.dev/autocomplete/how-to-use-it[Autocomplete], https://docs.continue.dev/edit/how-to-use-it[Edit] and https://docs.continue.dev/actions/how-to-use-it[Actions]. Currently, the plugin is available for Intellij and VSCode. With IDEasy, we aim to keep the configuration process simple and provide the option to pre-configure the code assistant via https://github.com/devonfw/ide-settings[ide-settings]
+
+The pre-configuration file can be found here: https://github.com/devonfw/ide-settings/workspace/update/.continuerc.json)[.continuerc.json] 
+
+The default configuration is set so that your model runs via `vllm`. The only action you have to take is to override the `apiBase` key with your server url. Telemetry is also disabled by default.
+```
+{
+  "models": [
+    {
+      "title": "My vLLM OpenAI-compatible server",
+      "apiBase": "http://localhost:8000/v1"
+    }
+  ],
+
+  "allowAnonymousTelemetry": false   
+}
+```
