Google has introduced new Gemini Code Assist tools, currently in private preview, expanding the capabilities of its AI-powered coding assistant. The update includes integration with third-party data sources like GitHub, GitLab, Google Docs, and more. This enhancement aims to streamline developers’ workflows by providing seamless access to information and tools from various applications within the IDE.
The recent launch of Gemini Flash 2.0 by Google further enhances the coding experience, promising high-quality responses with reduced latency. Partners like Atlassian, GitHub, GitLab, Google Docs, Sentry, and Snyk have already announced their support for the new Gemini Code Assist tools.
The integration of these tools allows developers to access technical specifications, track progress, resolve blockers, and collaborate more efficiently without leaving the coding environment. Google emphasizes how these updates will contribute to enhanced productivity for developers and create new growth opportunities for its partners.
Developers keen to explore the new capabilities can sign up for the private preview of Gemini Code Assist tools and access Gemini 2.0 Flash. This endeavor underscores Google’s commitment to advancing AI and providing valuable resources for the developer community.
