About aider
Aider lets you pair program with LLMs to start a new project or build on your existing codebase. Aider works best with Claude 3.7 Sonnet, DeepSeek R1 & Chat V3, OpenAI o1, o3-mini & GPT-4o, but can connect to almost any LLM, including local models. Aider makes a map of your entire codebase, which helps it work well in larger projects.
