CodeWhisperer is an AI coding companion that generates real-time, single-line or full-function code suggestions in your Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to help you quickly build software. With CodeWhisperer, you can write a comment in natural language that outlines a specific task in English, such as “Upload a file with server-side encryption.” Based on this information, CodeWhisperer recommends one or more code snippets directly in the IDE that can accomplish the task. You can quickly and easily accept the top suggestion (tab key), view more suggestions (arrow keys), or continue writing your own code. You should always review a code suggestion before accepting them, and you may need to edit it to ensure it does exactly what you intended.
