uh hello guys uh welcome to this video
0:02
So in this video I will show you how to
0:05
enable the AI agent mode inside your VS
0:08
code Uh agent mode is a special kind of
0:12
a artificial intelligent mode which is
0:14
uh recently released in VS code which
0:17
allows you to build your application
0:19
faster using a agent mode So by default
0:24
you will see GitHub copilot is there
0:26
This is actually the icon here So if you
0:29
are not seeing this you should obviously
0:32
update your VS code by going to this
0:36
help option So just go to help and just
0:39
check this option which is check for
0:41
updates and it will actually check for
0:44
recent updates and you can see I'm
0:47
saying there are currently no updates
0:49
available So in our in your case if any
0:52
update is available it will download
0:54
this and install it So just install the
0:58
latest version of VS Code And after that
1:01
just go to this uh button right here
1:03
This is GitHub Copilot It's built in
1:06
inside VS Code And this doesn't require
1:09
any paid version of GitHub copilot It's
1:12
totally free You can use it Simply click
1:14
this open chat button And after that you
1:17
will see these two options which will
1:19
appear by default If you see the ask
1:22
mode and the edit mode So the ask mode
1:24
here
1:26
basically it actually if you ask any
1:30
kind of question right here let's
1:31
suppose I will say how to make a
1:35
calculator in
1:38
uh HTML CSS and
1:41
JavaScript So this is actually the ask
1:44
mode It's a very basic AI mode where you
1:46
actually ask the question and then the
1:48
AI will basically generate the response
1:51
for you and it actually generated all
1:54
the files here If you see that but it
1:56
hasn't created these files in our local
1:59
directory So it just provided us with
2:02
the code here You will see if you
2:05
individually click on the files it will
2:07
be the code will be shown right here
2:14
And then there is a second mode here
2:16
which will be you can see this is
2:17
actually your calculator code here And
2:20
then there is a second mode right here
2:22
If you see this is actually the edit
2:24
mode And uh this mode allows you to
2:27
create files automatically So now the
2:30
this mode whenever you ask a question to
2:33
the artificial intelligent it will also
2:35
create files for you automatically
2:38
rather than answering the question So
2:40
now if I ask the same
2:42
question just make
2:45
a
2:48
scientific
2:50
calculator and
2:52
uh HTML CSS and and start the dev
3:00
server So we actually asked a question
3:03
So now it will actually generate the
3:05
response It will also create the files
3:07
for us
3:09
So you can see it is generating the HTML
3:12
file and
3:14
uh now in this edit mode it will also
3:18
create the file automatically for you
3:19
You see it has created this index html
3:22
file and now it is writing the
3:25
stylesheet code here If you see it has
3:28
written the stylesheet code and now it
3:31
is creating the JavaScript code
3:38
So this is your JavaScript code also
3:41
written and now we have these options
3:44
here to keep these files or not I will
3:46
say keep these files and
3:49
uh all the files here you will see now
3:52
we have these commands
3:55
here it is telling us so whenever you
3:58
click it will automatically
4:01
uh just execute these commands as well
4:03
Just click on the individual command and
4:06
you can see it is installing these
4:08
dependencies npm install you will see
4:12
and then just click on that npm start So
4:16
it will start your application at
4:18
the
4:19
browser So this is this edit
4:24
mode which uh automatically does all all
4:28
the things for you You don't need to do
4:29
anything You just ask ask the question
4:32
and then it will build out the
4:34
application and also
4:39
start you will see it is started the
4:43
live
4:46
server So this is your calculator which
4:49
is ready It is executed in the browser
4:51
You can see
4:52
that And now there is the third kind of
4:55
a mode which is recently released in the
4:57
latest version of VS code which is agent
5:00
mode So by default it will not be showed
5:04
So now to enable this agent mode you
5:06
just need to go to uh
5:09
preferences and preferences open
5:11
settings user interface and here you
5:14
just need to search for the agent
5:17
setting right here and just enable this
5:19
mode here By default it will not be
5:21
enabled Just tick mark this option and
5:23
it will enable this agent mode And also
5:26
tick mark this option as well And after
5:30
doing that just restart your system and
5:36
uh just restart your system and then
5:39
again go to this uh GitHub copilot and
5:42
then here you will see the third mode
5:44
which is there which is the agent mode
5:47
Uh agent mode is slightly different from
5:49
this edit mode agent mode slightly works
5:53
uh like a developer like a real human
5:56
being So AI will actually think about
6:00
before generating the response So it's a
6:02
special kind of a mode and you can
6:04
select any AI model from this drop-down
6:07
here By default it selected claude 3.5
6:10
So here you can change to any AI model
6:13
So here you can again ask the same
6:15
question
6:20
and let's suppose I delete
6:23
these files here
6:26
and now we don't have anything and uh
6:29
you can create a new chat here by
6:31
clicking the plus icon to create a new
6:34
chat and now if you want to build out
6:37
anything you can just
6:49
Just build
6:57
a scientific calculator
7:01
in
7:03
React and start the React app
7:10
So you can just ask any question here
7:12
and it will do the entire thing on its
7:15
own You don't need to do
7:17
anything So it is automatically
7:20
detecting whatever you ask depending
7:22
upon that it will generate the files for
7:25
you So it this is the difference between
7:28
the edit and the agent mode So at every
7:31
step it will ask you whether you want to
7:33
continue or not So you will see this
7:36
command Now you say continue And now it
7:39
will
7:41
basically execute this command to create
7:43
a brand new React
7:46
application And once it is done it will
7:49
move to the next step You can see on the
7:51
left hand side the React project is
7:53
created And then it is telling us to
7:55
execute Can I execute this command so at
7:58
every step it will ask you and just
8:01
click continue And now it is installing
8:04
the npm
8:06
dependencies And uh after that it will
8:08
write the code So this is the difference
8:11
between the agent and the edit mode Uh
8:14
in agent mode it will ask you at every
8:17
point whether you want to continue or
8:19
not So this is the
8:21
advantage and
8:24
uh with this you can generate any sort
8:27
of application uh just ask the question
8:31
and you can see all the things are doing
8:33
it
8:35
automatically So once it is done right
8:43
here it is creating these files here of
8:46
the calculator If you see
9:03
So there is some kind of limitation of
9:06
how much request you can make You can
9:09
read the documentation of GitHub copilot
9:12
This is a newly launched mode here agent
9:14
mode So I think only five requests are
9:19
there per our basis
9:30
So you can see sometimes it actually
9:33
stuckss as well because it's a newly
9:35
launched feature So that's why it can
9:38
draw create some loading time as well So
9:42
you can pause
9:45
and start the application as well
9:51
Now create the code and start the app So
9:54
at any point of time you can even stop
9:56
this as well and then it will
9:58
automatically detect where it left off
10:01
and then it will actually start from
10:04
that location So that's the advantage of
10:06
using agent mode So now it
10:09
is creating that scientific
10:15
calculator So you can enable this agent
10:17
mode guys It's very helpful It will save
10:20
you a lot of time in writing the code
10:22
and uh uh building out your applications
10:26
in very easy time You can see it is
10:29
writing this code
10:46
So now it is telling us to can I execute
10:49
this command So I will say continue So
10:51
it will run this project in the browser
10:59
So So if you go to the local host
11:12
5173 So this is your scientific
11:14
calculator in ReactJS You will see that
11:18
it is perfectly
11:19
working So this is a very simple example
11:22
that I showed you of a very basic app
11:24
but uh using this agent mode you can
11:28
basically create any sort of app and uh
11:30
it will save you a lot of time So this
11:32
is a tutorial on how to using it and
11:34
enabling it It's a fairly new feature
