Summary
OpenDevin is a community-driven, open-source project in the technology sector that functions as an AI software engineer. It emerged as an open-source alternative to the proprietary AI software engineer named Devin, aiming to replicate, enhance, and innovate beyond its original model. OpenDevin seeks to unlock the full potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) in software development, enabling users to install it locally and perform complex coding tasks. The project is currently in active development, with an alpha version available for community contributions and use.

Devon ( DEV-ən; historically also known as Devonshire -sheer, -shər) is a ceremonial county in South West England. It is bordered by the Bristol Channel to the north, Somerset and Dorset to the east, the English Channel to the south, and Cornwall to the west. The city of Plymouth is the largest settlement, and the city of Exeter is the county town. The county has an area of 2,590 sq mi (6,700 km2) and a population of 1,194,166. The largest settlements after Plymouth (264,695) are the city of Exeter (130,709) and the seaside resorts of Torquay and Paignton, which have a combined population of 115,410. They all are located along the south coast, which is the most populous part of the county; Barnstaple (31,275) and Tiverton (22,291) are the largest towns in the north and centre respectively. For local government purposes Devon comprises a non-metropolitan county, with eight districts, and the unitary authority areas of Plymouth and Torbay. Devon County Council and Torbay Council collaborate through a combined county authority. Devon has a varied geography. It contains Dartmoor and part of Exmoor, two upland moors which are the source of most of the county's rivers, including the Taw, Dart, and Exe. The longest river in the county is the Tamar, which forms most of the border with Cornwall and rises in Devon's northwest hills. The southeast coast is part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, and characterised by tall cliffs which reveal the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous geology of the region. The county gives its name to the Devonian geologic period, which includes the slates and sandstones of the north coast. Dartmoor and Exmoor have been designated national parks, and the county also contains, in whole or in part, five national landscapes. In the Iron Age, Roman and the Sub-Roman periods, the county was the home of the Dumnonii Celtic Britons. The Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain resulted in the partial assimilation of Dumnonia into the kingdom of Wessex in the eighth and ninth centuries, and the western boundary with Cornwall was set at the Tamar by king Æthelstan in 936.

- OpenDevin: AI Software Engineer With Complex Coding Completion
Introduction [Music] after the release of Devon which is the first AI software engineer that is outperforming many Frameworks on completing human tasks there have been many other new Frameworks trying to replicate the same performance or even surpass it this is where I would like to introduce open Devon this is another open- source alternative to Devon which is now long you to install it locally and execute various tasks with it now with open Deon you can see that this is another autonomous AI [...] paste it into our Command Prompt and click enter this will start the server up and once this is finished we can then wait it out and then move over to our second terminal where we're going to be setting up the front end so once this is finished starting up we can then open up another terminal and this is by just opening up another command prompt you can then copy this uh so you can go back to this new terminal go into CD Devin open Devon sorry and then go into the front end uh directory within [...] 📝 Overview: Welcome to the forefront of software engineering evolution with OpenDevin, a pioneering project that seeks to replicate and elevate Devin, an autonomous AI software engineer revolutionizing the way we approach complex engineering tasks. Through the collaborative efforts of the open-source community, OpenDevin aims to unlock the full potential of LLMs in software development.

went viral now we have a completely open source version of Devon called open Devon and today I'm going to show it to you and that's what you're looking at right now so I'm going to show it to you I'm going to show you how to use it and I'm going to show you how to install it so this is it and I already set it all up so let me show it to you first so it says hello I'm Devon and I asked it write a simple calculator app with python so it started writing a new task here on the right side you can [...] I haven't gotten it to work but open Devon works pretty darn well so give it a try create issues on their GitHub repository as you come across them contribute if you're open to that and open Devon can be something really special that helps developers and even non-developers be really productive at building code if you liked this video please consider giving a like And subscribe and I'll see you in the next one [...] get clone and then paste in that URL and then hit enter and that's it we've cloned it to our desktop next we're going to CD into open Devon and next we're going to click this little button right here Explorer we're going to open folder select the desktop and then we're going to select open Devon and now we have the open Deon project open in Visual Studio code all right now that we have that going let's spin up a new cond environment so we're going to do condac create DN o for open Deon python

### Description 18591 views Posted: 18 Aug 2024 In this video, I'm excited to introduce you to Devon, an open-source AI software engineer that truly delivers on the promise of autonomous app development. Unlike other AI tools like Devin and Genie, which require waitlist access and offer limited functionality, Devon is free to use, runs locally on your desktop, and is ready to assist with your software development needs right away. [...] click enter this is going to start cloning this repository onto our desktop next what you're going to do is go over to your command prompt and simply go into the Devon file that's by going by typing in CD Devon and once you have done that we can then start inputting our API Keys now one thing I want to note is that you can also run this with AMA which is really easy to do so they showcase how you can run it if you scroll down you can run it with a local model by simply just starting the local [...] a big problem there is no way for us to actually harness the product's ability as both require you to fill out a weightless form to basically be selected to use their product but guess what I have a solution to this and this is where I would like to introduce an open-source AI software engineer that's called Devon an AI pair programmer that creates software for you autonomously this is a completely free framework that lets you develop endtoend apps on your desktop locally for free and it gives
