Amazon recently released Amazon CodeWhisperer to the public. It is an AWS real-time AI code generator developed to help software developers write code faster, and identify and fix errors in their code. 

It is a cloud-based service that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to provide recommendations and insights on code optimization. 

It provides recommendations on how to optimize code for performance, security, and maintainability. CodeWhisperer uses AI and ML algorithms to analyze code and provide suggestions to improve it. CodeWhisperer is integrated with other AWS services, such as AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, and AWS CodePipeline, to provide a seamless software development experience.

Features of CodeWhisperer:

  • Intuitive user interface: It has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to use. The interface is divided into two main sections: the code editor and the CodeWhisperer panel. The code editor is where you write your code. The CodeWhisperer panel is where you can see CodeWhisperer’s suggestions and feedback.
  • Integration with popular development tools: AWS CodeWhisperer integrates with popular development tools, such as IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, and Visual Studio Code.
  • Collaborative code review tools: AWS CodeWhisperer includes collaborative code review tools that make it easy to review code with others. These tools allow you to comment on code, track changes, and resolve conflicts.
  • Automated code analysis: AWS CodeWhisperer includes automated code analysis tools that can help you find potential errors in your code. These tools can help you improve the quality and security of your code.
  • Built-in Security Scans and AI powered Code remedition.
  • Supports major Programming languages like Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, Go, Rust, PHP, Ruby, Kotlin, C, C++, Shell scripting, SQL, Scala, JSON, YAML, and HCL.

How to Use Amazon CodeWhisperer?

To use Amazon CodeWhisperer, developers need to have an AWS account and access to AWS CodeCommit. CodeWhisperer can be accessed through the AWS Management Console.

To analyze code manually, developers can navigate to the CodeWhisperer console and select the code repository to analyze. CodeWhisperer will then provide recommendations on how to optimize the code.

Difference between the Professional and Individual versions of Amazon CodeWhisperer?

CodeWhisperer is offered in two tiers. Let’s start with the first major difference. The Individual Tier is free to use and requires a simple sign-up to create an AWS Builder ID. The Professional Tier offers all the capabilities of the Individual Tier and also allows organizations to centrally manage licensing and service policies for their developers. This is charged on a flat per-month, per-user fee with no long-term commitments.
You can also setup single sign-on (SSO) for your organization with Amazon CodeWhisperer.

Conclusion

AWS CodeWhisperer is revolutionizing the code review process. By adopting this cutting-edge tool, you can unlock a multitude of benefits, including improved code quality, accelerated development cycles, enhanced collaboration, and greater adherence to coding best practices.
