Aider.el: Aider (AI Pair Programming) Inside Emacs

Recently, the Cursor editor has been gaining popularity. As a long-time Emacs user, I don&#x27;t want to switch to Cursor just because of AI. Currently, Aider only has plugins for Vim and VSCode, but Emacs has a tradition of integrating command-line tools. So I decided to write my own, as a humble attempt.<p>What additional value does this library provide above the command line operations provided by aider?<p>- Menu operation, tap a few less keys, operate directly on the code without switching; automatically manage git repo aider session.<p>- aider.el will send the context of emacs editing to aider, for example, which function or class is concerned about now? What are currently selected? This will allow the user to type less keyboard.<p>- aider is the core engine, and this software package is aimed at daily application issues that programmers are concerned about. For example, how to add&#x2F;modify code; how to test the correctness of AI code; how to read other people&#x27;s code; and how to debug exception if you want to strengthen in the future.
