AI Tools Pick에이드 (Aide)
Open-source AI code editor built as a VS Code fork
What is 에이드 (Aide)?
Aide is an open-source AI code editor built on top of VS Code. It combines chat and editing in one flow, with agents that fix errors on their own and pull in related code for context. It's free to download, and you can inspect the source or self-host it.
How to start in 5 minutes
- Download the editor from aide.dev (or GitHub)
- Install and launch it — it feels familiar, like VS Code
- Ask the chat to write code and the AI edits files and fixes errors
