AntiVibe

SAY RIP TO VIBE CODING

Antivibe.ai VS Code Extension

🚀 Learn to code, don't just copy-paste! Antivibe.ai helps you understand programming concepts instead of relying on AI to write code for you.

Features

• 🎯 Smart Hints: Get guided hints instead of complete solutions
• 💡 Progressive Assistance: Choose hint levels from conceptual nudges to implementation guidance
• 🤔 Thought-Provoking Questions: Learn to think like a programmer
• 📚 Relevant Resources: Get pointed to learning materials
• 🔍 Problem Detection: Automatically recognizes problem types (Two Sum, Binary Search, String Reversal, etc.)

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Node.js (for VS Code extension)
• Python 3.8+ (for backend server)

Installation & Setup

1. Clone the repository

git clone <your-repo-url>
cd AntiVibe

2. Setup Backend Server

cd antivibe-backend
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Setup VS Code Extension

cd antivibe-ai
npm install

Running the Application

1. Start the Backend Server (Terminal 1):

cd antivibe-backend
source venv/bin/activate
uvicorn main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

2. Run the VS Code Extension (Terminal 2):

cd antivibe-ai
npm run compile
Press F5 to launch extension development window

Usage

1. Select code in your editor
2. Right-click and choose "Antivibe: Get Hint" or use Ctrl+Shift+H
3. Choose hint level:
   • 🚀 Level 1: Conceptual nudge
   • 💡 Level 2: Algorithm suggestion
   • 🔧 Level 3: Implementation hint
   • 🎯 Level 4: Code structure
4. Describe your problem when prompted
5. Get guided hints that help you learn!

Supported Problem Types

• Two Sum: Find pairs that add to target
• Binary Search: Search in sorted arrays
• String Reversal: Reverse strings efficiently
• General: Fallback for other problems

API Endpoints

• POST /api/hint - Get hints for your code
• GET /api/health - Check server status
• GET /api/problem-types - List supported problems

Development

Backend Development:

cd antivibe-backend
uvicorn main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

Extension Development:

cd antivibe-ai
npm run watch  # Auto-compile on changes
Press F5 to debug

Troubleshooting

Server not connecting?

• Check if backend is running on port 8000
• Verify curl http://localhost:8000/api/health works
• Ensure no firewall blocking the connection

Extension not working?

• Check Developer Tools (Help → Toggle Developer Tools)
• Verify npm run compile succeeds
• Check backend server is running

What's Next

• More problem types and algorithms
• Code analysis for better hints
• Learning progress tracking
• Multiple programming languages

Remember: The goal is understanding, not just solving! 🧠

Backend server must be running for hints to work!
