Support a new IDE

[sestinj]

Continue was designed so that this can be as easy as possible, but it will still probably be a good amount of work. However, features can be added incrementally and getting 80% of Continue in a new IDE might take only 20% of the work.

To support a new IDE, you need to implement a class like here, which just maps each of the actions like "read file" or "display message" to the proper API given by that IDE.

IDEs we would like to support:

• JetBrains
• Neovim
• Visual Studio
• Vim
• Emacs
• Chrome extension?

Hey @sestinj. The link in the comment above doesnt seem to be working. Could you please provide the link?Thanks

I believe the new file would be here. It seems like a good starting point to understand the IDE interface.

sorry, I’m new here and may be I miss something.
but this could be done through LSP (langage server protocol), most editors in the list support it (here is a non exhaustive list)

• vim through vim-lsp
• neovim (native, need to provide config)
• emacs (eglot native since 29) or lsp-mode
• eclipse (lsp4e)
• netbeans
• ...
  this require to provide only one LSP server interface and may be some guideline to configure / run server
