Full Review
Amazon CodeWhisperer is AWS's AI coding companion. It provides real-time code suggestions in your IDE, similar to Copilot. Its key differentiators are a generous free tier for individual developers and a strong focus on security. It performs security scans on your code to identify vulnerabilities and can even suggest fixes. It also includes a reference tracker to help you cite the source of suggested code that resembles open-source training data, which is crucial for managing code licenses.
Pros:
- ✅ Generous free tier for individuals
- ✅ Built-in security scanning
- ✅ Reference tracker for open-source code
Cons:
- ❌ Suggestions can be less creative than Copilot
- ❌ Deepest integration is with AWS services
