Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Nate, co-founder at Continue. Today we're launching Continue 1.0: a major upgrade in reliability for our VS Code and JetBrains extensions along with hub.continue.dev, the easiest place to build and share custom AI code assistants. ✨
For over a year, we've seen the Continue community use custom prompts, rules, models, and more. While immense value has come from customization, it was still difficult. We're trying to solve that.
With its large and growing ecosystem of pre-built "blocks", we hope that hub.continue.dev will make it frictionless for anyone to use a custom coding assistant, or share what you've built with others.
Already the hub includes hundreds of blocks:
🦙 Models - frontier LLMs from more than a dozen providers
📚 Prompts - codify complex tasks to be reused with just a slash command
✅ Rules - instructions that ensure every response follows your preferred practices
🌐 Docs - give your LLM the latest information about your specific tech stack
🛠️ MCP - a large library of custom tools, powered by the Model Context Protocol
...and it only just went live. If you've ever used an AI code assistant and wished it knew a bit more about your development practices, then Continue is for you. I can't wait to see what you all build!
Happy hunting,
Nate

I've been involved in building the hub and the extensions for the past few months. Feel free to ask if you have any questions, especially on the technical side!
Group of Ai assistants for different development in open source will surely help for faster coding practices and shared experience

@ajay27324 We think so too! Thanks for your support
Matthaus here, CEO/co-founder of dlthub, makers of open source Python library dlt here. Most of the agents in our domain of data engineering don't work (there's some reasonably well working use cases in data visualisation and analysis, though). Eg no on has figured out a "Cursor" for data engineering out, yet. We are believers in https://amplified.dev/ - we as a community need to build an open ecosystem of agentic components to push the frontiers of what agents can do across many domains. Hence we early contributors to the building blocks offered in https://hub.continue.dev/dlthub. We are curious of what the community will come up with. We aim to contribute more building blocks in time !

@matthausk @nate_sesti I may be interested in working with both of you in a joint Contribution project. Im the Founder of LW Technologies and I'm always looking for partners in the AI code space. as Ben Franklin said "We Must All Stand Together, Or We Will All Hang Separately"
Always enjoyed trying out continue using the IDE plugin on vscode, excited to check out the updates

@gordon_wu3 Thanks Gordon, excited to hear what you think!
Great stuff: as Continue has added more features creating powerful custom configs has become something of an artform. It's great to be able to package all that complexity up and share it easily. My go to AI code assistant!

@sherman_boyd Thanks for the support Sherman, and for everything you do in the Continue community!
This looks super useful for devs who constantly switch between projects. Being able to pick up right where you left off without losing context is a huge productivity boost. Congrats on the launch

Excited to try it out!

Congrats Nate!
