    * Includes Python code that runs an AI resume evaluator

Use [[https://mermaid.js.org/|Mermaid]] to render charts. AIs are pretty good at it. GitHub and GitLab support it natively, which means your README.md or wiki can literally render the diagram itself, no screenshots required.


====== Nvim ======

Copilot and CopilotChat install instructions are at the [[neovim]] page.

  * Check out [[https://github.com/yetone/avante.nvim|avante]] to emulate the behaviour of the Cursor AI IDE. It provides users with AI-driven code suggestions and the ability to apply these recommendations directly to their source files with minimal effort.
  * and the [[https://github.com/supermaven-inc/supermaven-nvim|supermaven]] plugin which integrates [[https://supermaven.com/|Supermaven]]. (An improved chat interface.)

====== CLIs ======
