## What it is
Void is an open-source AI code editor forked from VS Code, offering chat, agent mode, inline edits, and autocomplete with any LLM provider or locally hosted models, with no data passing through a private backend. The project is now deprecated and no longer accepting contributions, though it remains a reference for forking VS Code.

## Use cases
- open source alternative to cursor ai code editor
- use claude and gpt inside my ide without a middleman backend
- code editor that works with locally hosted llms like ollama
- ai agent that edits files and runs terminal commands in my repo
- fork vs code and add ai features to it
- autocomplete and inline ai edits in a free ide

## When to choose
- you want a reference codebase for building your own VS Code fork with AI features
- you want to use an older release of an open-source Cursor alternative with your own API keys or local models

## When to avoid
- you want an actively maintained AI editor - the project is deprecated and contributions are closed
- you want production support or new features - use one of the newer Void forks or another editor
