Add Quack Companion to VSCode
Initial setup
IDE setup
Install VSCode on your computer (support of other IDEs will follow).

Using Quack Companion in your IDE
Create guidelines (optional)
Click on the ”+” sign in the Coding guidelines webview to create one. Make it specific enough so that it looks like a linter rule.
Chat with Quack
All your curated guidelines are embedded in the chat view. Quite a similar experience to ChatGPT or Copilot Chat
