Void is an open-source, AI-powered code editor built as a fork of Visual Studio Code. Designed as a fully transparent and privacy-focused alternative to Cursor or GitHub Copilot, it lets you use AI models locally or via APIs (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Ollama, etc.)—without routing data through proprietary servers. Developed by YC-backed startup Glass Devtools, it supports traditional coding features inherited from VS Code, enhanced with in-editor LLM capabilities—autocomplete, inline quick edits, and chat agents, all while giving developers total prompt and data control.
Features
- Autocomplete using AI via "Tab" key
- Inline "Quick Edit" of selected code with LLM-powered diffs
- Chat interface supporting "Agent" (modify filesystem/terminal) and "Gather" modes (read-only)
- Connects to any LLM provider: local (Ollama, vLLM) or external (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini)
- Preserves VS Code ecosystem compatibility: themes, keybindings, extensions, terminal, Git
- Advanced tools: file-system–aware context, checkpoints, lint detection, SSH/WSL, auto‑updates
