Problem
Developers need an AI‑enhanced code editor that integrates advanced language model assistance without sending their code to third‑party services, and they want flexibility to use any LLM, including self‑hosted models.
Solution
Void is an open‑source AI code editor built on the VS Code platform that brings AI‑driven autocomplete, chat, and agent capabilities directly into the development environment. Users can invoke context‑aware completions with a simple Tab press, edit selections inline, and interact with a chat interface that supports normal conversation, gathering information, or full‑featured agent mode. Void connects directly to any large language model—public APIs, private self‑hosted instances, or frontier models—eliminating the need for a proprietary backend and giving users full control over their data. The editor also includes features such as lint error detection, fast apply of suggestions, and support for large files, while allowing extensions like checkpoint tracking for LLM changes.
Target Audience
Void targets software developers and development teams who want AI‑assisted coding while retaining full control over their code and model infrastructure, especially those preferring open‑source tools and self‑hosted LLMs.
