Continue: the open source VS Code extension that lets you pick the model

On August 8, 2023 Continue, a startup founded by Ty Dunn and Nate Sesti and part of Y Combinator's Summer 2023 batch, launches its VS Code extension on Product Hunt. The idea is to bring a ChatGPT-style assistant straight into the editor, without copying code back and forth from a chat window.

Unlike commercial assistants, Continue is open source (Apache 2.0 license) and lets you choose which model to use, including open source models.
