Compare CodeGeeX vs. Windsurf Editor

Introducing CodeGeeX, a powerful multilingual code generation model boasting 13 billion parameters, which has been pre-trained on an extensive code corpus covering over 20 programming languages. Leveraging the capabilities of CodeGeeX, we have created a VS Code extension (search 'CodeGeeX' in the Extension Marketplace) designed to support programming in various languages. In addition to its proficiency in multilingual code generation and translation, CodeGeeX can serve as a personalized programming assistant through its few-shot learning capability. This means that by providing a handful of examples as prompts, CodeGeeX can mimic the showcased patterns and produce code that aligns with those examples. This functionality enables the implementation of exciting features such as code explanation, summarization, and generation tailored to specific coding styles. For instance, users can input code snippets reflecting their unique style, and CodeGeeX will generate similar code accordingly. Moreover, experimenting with different prompt formats can further inspire CodeGeeX to develop new coding skills and enhance its versatility. Thus, CodeGeeX stands out as a versatile tool for developers looking to streamline their coding processes.
