PHi
K@ZacckOsiemo : the AI in Embeetle is not so invasive compared to other IDEs. It's not all the time pushing stuff while you're coding. At the moment it's only present in a separate chat window that you have to open manually. In the future we might integrate the AI in other parts of the IDE, but we'll always be careful not to become "too pushy".
KI usually work with ChatGPT4-o and Google Gemini. The great thing about the AI chats in Embeetle IDE is that you can switch between models even mid-conversation. So you can try out a bit of everything.
TIs there an embeetle API?
KNope.
But there is an API to the "Pieces for Developers" software we used to integrate the AI into Embeetle. It's a Python API.

PHave you noticed any significant differences between the models you’ve tested so far? Curious if some are more efficient or better suited for certain tasks.
ZI like that part, I have to go to a search window to use the AI is a good start
KYeah. I prefer ChatGPT4-o
ZMy team can use that because really we just use it as a search engine
K
Zand really we use it to read reference manuals
KGreat
Tin online or offline mode?
KChatGPT4-o is right now only available in online mode.
KAs for the offline models, I prefer Mistral-7B
PHow does ChatGPT4-o compare to Google Gemini in your experience so far?
Tyeah we've been messing around with both GPT and Mistral too
K
KDownload Embeetle and launch up the AI in there.
ZThe way we use it is, is if I can't decipher a part of the reference manual as quickly as I want. I ask chatgpt to explain it to me like I am 5. I get the context quickly and go back to code.
ZRarely do we use it to generate code or fix bugs
Zits usually to spot something that would take us too long to spot
Tdo you plan on it or going to keep it closed
Tfor embeetle
KYou also have to download "Pieces for Developers". But no worries. It's super easy, and Embeetle guides you the way. When you launch the AI in Embeetle and "Pieces for Developers" is not yet installed or not running, Embeetle shows you how to do it, step-by-step 
That's our spirit: we wanna keep things easy. And explain everything right at the moment you need it (eg. when you flash a board and it fails, Embeetle shows you the way forward).

KGood question. What would you use an API to Embeetle for?
Ti have some ideas 
K@ZacckOsiemo and @Phoenix :
The Embeetle IDE download is around 150MB. Besides, no installation required. Just unzip and run on-the-spot.

TI'd like to provide more tools for devs at their fingertips when they're in and around the forum
KCool
KLet's discuss that in our meeting soon
Tit would be useful to have a code editor at minimum that's available right there
Tyeah we will discuss
Ztoo poor at the moment to buy a linux box is the issue :premium_dev_tears:
Zto repl all the code people post here and check for errors
Twhile you're using the forum it would be nice to be able to integrate code like zacck says w/o a big hassle
Twhen we kick those ask a developer sessions back into gear it would be dope to be able to follow along with the editor and video in the same ui
TFor example @Umesh Lokhande and @Edison_ngunjiri have been creating a bunch of sample code for EH sessions; it would be really awesome to have a 'code-with-us' element
T@Phoenix do you think that's possible on the site.... PIP with an IDE and video tutorial?
TAnd more importantly would you use it @ZacckOsiemo ?
ZThe REPL, yeah I can consider it. If DevHeads had some hardware I could ssh into and test with while watching logs and a video of an LED
ZThe thing that is odd here is that our development involves hardware so we have to find a way of tying it in
TEmulator?
PIt sounds like a great idea. Having a built-in code editor alongside a video tutorial or during live developer sessions would definitely be useful
Zno real hardware
PI think it’s possible, depending on how integrated Embeetle wants to make the experience
Twell wtf
ZSo sometimes I have hardware than @32bitSaviour doesn't have what I will do is open a vs live code session and connect my hardware to it. He will connect and run some code on it and I'll either watch the hardware or I can point my camera at it.
Tthat's great but what if there are 50 people in the session
