Editor extensions

GitLab editor extensions bring the power of GitLab and GitLab Duo directly into your preferred development environments. Use GitLab features and GitLab Duo AI capabilities to handle everyday tasks without leaving your editor. For example:

  • Manage your projects.
  • Write and review code.
  • Track issues.
  • Optimize pipelines.

Our extensions boost your productivity and elevate your development process by bridging the gap between your coding environment and GitLab.
