DevoxxGenie: Your AI Assistant for IntelliJ IDEA

DevoxxGenie is a Java-based LLM code assistant plugin for IntelliJ IDEA that integrates with local and cloud-based LLM providers. The plugin offers flexibility and freedom from vendor lock-in, allowing users to choose between various LLMs. AI coding assistants have gained popularity, with multiple cloud services and IDEs offering their own services. However, these services are often cloud-based and tied to a specific vendor. This can be a problem when company policies prohibit the use of cloud-based services. The DevoxxGenie plugin provides a solution by allowing users to choose from multiple LLMs, including local options. This flexibility is important, as new and more accurate models are released every few weeks. The plugin was created by Stephan Janssen, the founder of the Devoxx conference. DevoxxGenie offers a way to stay up-to-date with the latest models without being tied to a specific vendor. By using the plugin, users can take advantage of the latest advancements in LLM technology while maintaining control over their coding environment.
