all right guys so on this channel we've
covered many different AI coding tools
we've covered wind surf we've covered
cursor we've covered Aid we've covered
bolt. new we've covered Temple Labs we
covered pythagora Project idx R code
Klein bolt. DIY the list goes on and on
and frankly right now we are in the AI
coding IDE extension and just tool race
right now everyone's trying to be the
best tool and I've tried many different
tools on this channel and you guys have
seen me test the tools out but there's
one thing that I found that you know
some of these tools are just not great
at and yes it's frankly simple to build
a quick to-do list app or really any app
and just get it from zero to somewhat
decent fairly quickly get some
prototyping maybe with one of the
browser AI coding tools like VZ or bolt
or lovable and then maybe bring it over
into cursor or wind Surf and start
building upon it but as you start
building for days weeks months and as
things continue on your code base just
gets bigger and bigger and quite frankly
the performance of the AI coding tool
lots of the times gets dumber and dumber
and even with the current models we just
have today if you had a specific way to
index large code bases and have the llm
be able to retrieve that information in
a needle and a hay stack and give you
the correct answer with the correct
context that would be extremely powerful
alone and if you can solve this problem
really really well then you're going to
have have a huge advantage in the AI
coding space and in today's video we're
going to cover a tool that claims to be
just that now that tool is augment code
now when you first see this tool you may
think oh this is just another VSS code
extension it's not even an IDE if I'm
going to use a VX code extension I'm
going to use through code or Klein and I
completely get that but stay tuned
because in today's video I'm going to
show you how you can actually use
augment code and why it's supposedly the
best when it comes to managing context
in large databases big complex repos and
the cool thing about this is you don't
have to choose cursor wind surf or
augment code you know since this is a vs
code extension you could still use an
IDE AI coding editor and then have
augment code when you actually need to
understand very complex things or needle
in a Hast stack or cursor just fails
this is when this tool can come in
really hand the best thing is guys this
is 100% for free so without Ado guys
let's dive right into it all right guys
so all links I cover in today's video
will be linked down below I definitely
recommend you check out their website
here as well as their doc so the first
AI coding assistant built for
professional software engineers and
large code bases so integrates with VSS
code jet brains and neovim so that's
good has all the different Integrations
you've tried the AI coding that simply
helps you build programs from scratch
now try the AI that teams the complexity
of evolving your most sophisticated code
bases and this is usually where a lot of
people get stuck you know it's like I
said it's pretty easy to spin something
up let actually follow through and get
your project done or or actually
optimize it in an efficient ways once it
actually does start getting done that's
where people struggle with you can see
here they're trusted by the world's
leading software company so just some
big names right here data Stacks
GoFundMe advisor 360 con web flow you
guys get the point so quickly master
your largest and most complex repos to
augment orients you in minutes even if
you're new to a project or working in an
unfamiliar code base so you can make
updates with confidence there are no
simple changes in production software
but augment manages the challenges for
you so here we can see some benchmarks
we can see the CC Val exact match
percentage right here so we can see the
comparison between GitHub co-pilot right
here as well as augment and it is
scoring higher now you may be wondering
how do they actually do this how do they
back up this claim and how does it work
well I'll leave this link to this blog
post down below if you want to check it
out but they have a different approach
to retrieval in short the dominant
approach in retrieval remains calling
generic model apis like open AI to
create embeddings for Snippets of code
files and documents and then uses
embedding search apis like pine cone to
retrieve Snippets related to the query
however this approach leads to poor
quality poor latency and potentially
even poor security therefore augment has
taken a different approach we have
developed an indexing and embedding
search system tailored to give you the
most relevant up up toate context across
all products goes a little bit more into
depth down here about you know some of
it how it actually works but it is
apparently a proprietary system and
we're going to see how well it works all
right guys so here on the pricing we can
see Experience Unlimited choose your PL
so there are three different plans you
have the Community Edition right here
which is 3,000 chat messages unlimited
completions unlimited instructions UNL
liit to next edits and then Community
Support now the one caveat is that AI
training is per so they could train it
on your c-base and then if you want to
be on the professional or Enterprise
professional is 30 bucks per month per
user and you get unlimited chats and
then unlimited everything else it's not
being trained on your data and then $60
a month per active user for Enterprise
you get a few different things here
slack integration analytics all this
good stuff and there is a 30-day free
trial if you did want to use one of the
paid plans so first things first you're
going to want to click on install right
here to start installing augment code
you're going to want to log in and then
download it in vs code or cursor or the
IDE of your choice all right guys so you
can see I have cursor opened up right
here I have augment already downloaded
once you download it and you open it and
sign in in a project it's going to say
augments codebase understanding requires
syncing your workspace to the secure
augment Cloud please Grant the
permission to sync your workspace so you
can go ahead and just click on sync
right here and it's going to start
syncing the code base we're at 11% and
then syncing complete so very quick we
can see augment has just finished
syncing our code base all right so now
you can see that it actually gave us an
overview of what our project includes so
this is a nexj S14 app for executive
stride a business focused on AI powered
sales Automation and agent Solutions key
aspects include core features technical
stack architecture so uses nextjs app
router server and client components
environment based configuration you get
the point and it also provides different
potential questions right here that you
could ask about the code base so what's
the site's configuration managed and
what's the key settings in Liv
[Music]
config.txt right here and then the API
integration and this is kind of the
interface you see so it's actually a
very nice interface you have a copy to
clipboard you can click here to actually
open this up and now we're in this file
like so and we can see our API
integration it's explaining it all right
here JavaScript SDK create client
walking us through every single little
thing all right so you can see here we
can do forward slash for actions right
here or the at symbol to tag files and
more so if we do forward slash we can do
things like like find things in your
codebase explain explain how selected
code Works fix issues in selected code
base write test for selected code and
document so write documentation for
selected code if I highlighted this
right here then clicked this for write
documentation and then click Send we can
see it's generating and now it should be
writing the documentation yep so we can
see that it's documenting the codebase
like here's initialize content full
client with EnV M variables uh type
definitions for Content models and then
we can see you know it's basically just
outlining the whole entire thing now the
cool thing is I don't know exactly what
model they're using on the back end side
of things I don't know if it's a custom
model I don't know if it's you know just
something like Claud sonit 3.5 even
though that would be quite expensive uh
to give this away for free but it is a
good model and as you can see it's very
fast and you know you get to use it for
free no API key so it's great so now to
imp ment this we can go ahead here and
just click on apply now it's applying
those changes okay so the cool thing is
we can either accept these one by one
like so by either just clicking this or
clicking enter or either clicking this
or hitting control enter to accept all
if we scroll down you'll see that the
only thing it should be adding is just a
documentation which it looks like it did
it correctly so I'm just going to accept
all okay now I'm actually going to try
to add a new page in here um which is
going to be a case study page and I'm
going to tell it to integrate it with
the content full uh content model that I
have right here so I'm going to paste
this in this is just exactly how I want
the testimonials to be structured I'm
just getting this Json from content.com
all right so I'm pasting this in I'm
just saying here I want to create a new
page for testimonials that will be
fetching from a new content model from
content full the page should be named
case studies and they have Dynamic Pages
for each individual testimonial um the
for case study should show all the case
studies that can be clicked on basically
the same setup I have for my blog and
the Vault page analyze the Vault page to
get an understanding I'm going to go
ahead here and click on send all right
so you can see that it just like when
you type something like this in cursor
it's going to take a long not a long
time it's just going to you'll see that
it's kind of like loading see how quick
augment code is all right so here it's
saying it will create a similar setup to
the blog Pages or case studies first
let's create the necessary interfaces
and functions okay so we'll just see
that it's doing that here now let's
create the case studies list page create
a new file so it can create new files so
we got the case studies right here now
it's saying I'll create the dynamic page
for the individual case studies so
create a new file and it got that right
so this setup provides and we can see it
should provide everything that we wanted
I'm going to go ahead and apply these
individually now so applying to codebase
our new case studies page I'm just going
to trust it and click accept all same
thing here I'm going to click accept all
and then here I'm going to click on
create all right so I'm getting a lot of
type errors so I'm just going to paste
these type errors in here okay so I'm
going to click on apply here accept all
okay some of those are gone there's
still a couple more okay there's just
one more left okay so looks like we're
getting an error here I'm just going to
copy this and paste it in right here
okay and now you can see we actually
have our case studies page right here
I'm in contentful here I'm just going to
make a test case study and we're going
to go ahead and click on publish right
here okay but I don't see the case study
right here so I'm going to go back to
augment and tell it that so I'm just
saying on the case studies page no case
studies are loading or fetching I also
pasted in the type errors as well all
right so it added the missing function
right here I'm going to accept this now
it's updating the case studies page
let's go ahead and accept this as well
all right and boom now we're on the case
study page and as you can see our case
study has been loaded this is our test
case study of course we click into here
here we can see that our actual Dynamic
case study page for/ test is working now
of course this is very basic I would
actually customize this make it look a
lot nicer and we can see that it did
change up the actual styling here but
that's okay we could go ahead and change
this later that's pretty much it guys
for this video on augment code let me
know what your thoughts are in the
comments Down Below guys if you tried
out this tool and if you have tried it
out let me know how you think it is to
something like cursor wind surf rode
Klein the two main things I would say
for this tool to that make it really
great are one it it's 100% for free at
least at the moment and two the deeper
context awareness around your whole code
base so if you're actually building out
a code base I wouldn't recommend
personally starting from this using this
as at the start like creating a whole
project I would recommend using
something like cursor wind surf whatever
the case is but once you actually have a
project if you're having trouble getting
different problems solved this could
definitely come in handy and potentially
be game-changing other than guys if
