AI BriefingGhostwriter Inline Feature Improvements
Key point
Ghostwriter has significantly improved coding efficiency by introducing inline widgets, streaming, and a Diff view.
Details
Ghostwriter's inline actions (Explain Code, Generate Code, Edit Code) have been improved to be more efficient.
Instead of the existing popover approach, a persistent Inline Widget has been introduced. Since the widget stays within the coding environment, it doesn't interrupt the workflow, and all the functionality and shortcuts of the existing tooltip can still be used as before.
Streaming technology, which shows AI responses in real time, has been applied. This has reduced the time to first response to under 1 second, and the Jotai store and React context are used to synchronize state between inline actions and Ghostwriter Chat.
A Diff view has been introduced to make it easier to review AI suggestions.
- Generate Code: The suggested code is displayed as ghost text.
- Edit Code: A Diff view is provided that compares the existing code with the AI-suggested code line by line, allowing changes to be clearly reviewed and accepted or rejected.
