Supercharged Coding with GenAI
By :
This chapter highlighted that GenAI for coding emerged from the combination of software tool advancements with LLMs. This nascent technology applies not only to coding but can enhance many aspects of the SDLC. The combination of ChatGPT, OpenAI API, and GitHub Copilot provides a complementary set of tools that have been shown to not only improve productivity and enhance code quality but can even bring happiness to programmers.
Although the technology is new and still evolving, GenAI is already changing the software engineering field. This book was developed to provide a structured approach to effectively leverage the tools and achieve the best results across many aspects of the SDLC.
In the next chapter, we will introduce a quick-start guide to OpenAI API and use the chat service for coding tasks. We will build our own code completion program that takes a function’s signature as input and returns its implementation as output.
