Description

The open sourceAI code editor. · Void is an open source AI IDE with full privacy. · The AI Features You Love. · Quick Edit

Void is a fork of Visual Studio Code that integrates AI capabilities for coding assistance. It aims to provide developers with AI-powered features similar to Cursor, but with a focus on data privacy and control. Void offers features like AI autocomplete, inline edits, codebase chat, and agentic features, all while allowing users to retain full control over their data and choose their preferred AI models.

FAQ

Void is an open-source, AI-powered code editor and development environment built on VS Code. It offers sophisticated AI coding assistance such as code generation, debugging, code explanation, test and documentation creation, and performance optimization.

It targets developers who want smart AI help while retaining full control and privacy over their code and data. It suits those who prefer VS Code’s familiarity but want advanced AI features and support for multiple AI models, including self-hosted local models and cloud providers.

The key features of Void include context-aware code generation with project-wide understanding, multi-file editing and modification, test suite generation, comprehensive documentation creation, performance optimization suggestions, an AI "Agent Mode" that can search, edit, and run terminal commands, a "Gather Mode" for safe, read-only codebase analysis, and support for any AI model, including local LLMs and cloud models (e.g., GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini).

Void is privacy-focused: it allows users to self-host AI models locally so no data leaves their machine unless explicitly configured. Alternatively, users can connect directly to cloud AI providers without routing through a vendor’s private backend, giving full user control over data flow.

To set up Void, you need to download the open-source Void editor (available for free), configure your AI model in Settings by adding it under the Models section, enter API credentials if using cloud provider models (e.g., OpenAI-compatible API), connect Void directly to the local model endpoint for self-hosted models, and test configurations with simple code generation or queries in the chat interface.

You can interact with Void's AI features through a chat interface for asking coding questions, inline code generation and suggestions while typing, code explanations by selecting code snippets, code transformations and refactoring assistance, and by using keyboard shortcuts like 'Tab' for autocomplete and 'Cmd+K' for AI edits.

Void supports almost any AI model, including local open-source models such as LLaMA, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Ollama; cloud models like GPT-4o, Claude 3.5/3.7, Gemini 2.5, Grok, and Qwen; and free providers such as OpenRouter and Gemini via direct account connection.

Yes, it is called an "agentic AI IDE" because it goes beyond autocomplete by having goal-driven reasoning and full contextual awareness of the entire codebase. Agent mode allows it to create, edit, and delete files/folders and access the terminal, going beyond typical AI code assistants.

Yes, Void is 100% free and open-source software.
