Full Line code completion
The Full Line code completion feature uses a locally run deep learning model to suggest entire lines of code.
Suggestions are displayed in the editor in gray italics as you type PHP, JavaScript/TypeScript, or CSS code. To accept the suggestion, press Tab.
The IDE formats all suggestions and adds required brackets and quotes.
Each supported language has its own set of suggested code checks. The most basic ones, like unresolved reference checks, are available for most of the languages to guarantee that the IDE doesn't suggest non-existent variables and methods.
Full Line completion supports auto-import and uses smart filtering to avoid showing suggestions that tend to be canceled explicitly or deleted right after they were accepted.
Before you start working with Full Line code completion, note that:
Full Line code completion is currently not supported in Remote Development.
Full Line code completion requires a computer with a 64-bit processor or an x86 processor that supports AVX2.
