Typing Less, Coding More: How we delivered IntelliCode whole line completions with a transformer model

“Great code completions make you more productive while composing your code. Visual Studio 2022 now automatically completes C# code up to a whole line at a time, using a rich knowledge of your coding context. We have also released the IntelliCode Completions extension in Visual Studio Code (VSCode) to speed up coding in Python/TypeScript/JavaScript.
