New AI tool I tested: Coderabbit and Junie

We are all used to chatgpt or copilot now, we use AI when we code, other day I saw https://www.coderabbit.ai/ they promise if your project open source they are free at https://docs.coderabbit.ai/ And the same week, Junie from JetBrains came out. I wanted to use it too, So first I tried Junie and created a nice branch with some improvements and created a PR from it, then code rabbit started analyzing the code. So Junie made a good job, but I still needed to reshape and test the code before pushing, and CodeRabbit looked at different angles and tried to suggest more improvements. So overall it was fun. Junie has different approach then Copilot, we can create a task with Junie it fallow the steps more closely, with copilot it forgets everything on every prompt, so Junie was easier to use. And it remembers and record older tasks in its memory so you can turn back and look what you did. CodeRabbit is a new experience for me because I was talking with AI in Github PR, it really put some useful and some not useful comments. I applied and merged at the end of it. See details here While doing PR AI thing I catch some pictures, when I first comment CodeRabbit start thinking and puts this comment and if I comment a little bit too much, it rate limits And put some statistics in between With new agents and improvements soon they will start developing the projects we just enjoy the results References: https://www.coderabbit.ai/ https://www.jetbrains.com/junie/ https://github.com/ozkanpakdil/swaggerific/pull/16

coderabbit is free for open source

Junie first look

While doing PR AI thing I catch some pictures, when I first comment CodeRabbit start thinking and puts this comment

code rabbit thinking

and if I comment a little bit too much, it rate limits

code rabbit rate limit

And put some statistics in between

code rabbit stats

With new agents and improvements soon they will start developing the projects we just enjoy the results
