I’m curious if there’s a IDE/editor where you can do inline LLM prompts while editing a source file that works more like text macros; like you say “> fetch the users profile from the something API” and it throws in the few lines of code you want for that, maybe it has multiple suggestions.
Have you seen a (good) implementation of this?
Background: I’m researching am for an article about where (manual) programming will go (or not go) in the future and what can be learned from the popularity of LLMs for programming.
@thomasfuchs copilot in vscode has exactly that, CTRL/CMD+. on an empty line will give you a "generate" option, which adds an inline text box to write the prompt.
if you instead select existing code it has modify and review context options
