## What is Code Snippets AI?

Code Snippets AI is a secure & private, team-based, code snippets library.

With our VSCode extension, you can Generate, Refactor, Debug and Create Documentation for your code. Fast.

Save Code Snippets directly from VSCode, then store and share them with your development team, enhancing collaboration and introducing better code documentation. Which in turn, will help you and your team to become more efficient. 

Our platform drastically cuts down development time, by making AI code generation and storage more accessible.


## What are code snippets?

Code snippets are small, reusable blocks of code that can be inserted into a larger program. 

They are typically used to automate repetitive tasks and to make it easier for developers to quickly implement commonly used functionality. 

Code snippets can be written in any programming language and can range from simple lines of code to complex algorithms.

## What do we have planned for the future?
We shall be integrating and updating the system with new features listed on the Discord.

## What code and programming languages does GPT-4 know?
