Coding AI in VS Code which is good at Scala

Question
1

I want to use a Coding AI (like CoPilot or TabNine) to get good (multiline) Scala 3 code “completion” in VS Code.

Does anybody have experience specifically for Scala coding and can recommend one service over another?

I only have experience with Copilot and it’s worked relatively well for me. Relatively in the sense that it can still make some stuff up that doesn’t really work. But I’ve had the same experience when using it in Java so I wouldn’t say that it’s worse in Scala. I’ve only used it in Scala 2 projects though.

I use it mostly in Scala 3 and have the same experience as @Jasper-M

I have been using Cody from SourceGraph and I like Claude 3.5 as it can handle Scala’s indentation syntax too.

PS: fixed typo

Cody I know of, but what is “Claudia”?

You can’t mean Claudia AI: this is an interview-focused AI…

Maybe you mean Claude? Do you use it only in the browser, or does it also have an IDE plugin?
