The world's first integrated AI full-stack engineer in production and design has debuted at Tencent!

Today, let me introduce a "new colleague" — CodeBuddy AI IDE.

It is the next-generation AI full-stack engineer launched by Tencent Cloud and the world's first integrated AI tool that spans "product - design - development." Its working method is very simple:

You only need to express your requirements in natural language, and it can automatically complete the entire process from product conception to design prototype, front-end and back-end coding, and deployment.

Behind the "dialogue is programming" concept, CodeBuddy AI IDE integrates the most powerful model capabilities: the international version integrates mainstream large models such as Claude, GPT, and Gemini; the domestic version supports domestic models like Tencent Hunyuan and DeepSeek.

How powerful is it? Let's take a look at the full-link operation process —

NO.1 Clarifying Requirements and Outputting PRD

• Choose CodeBuddy's Plan mode and input a natural language description, such as "Help me generate an e-commerce order management page" or directly say you need a PRD;

• The AI will automatically break down the requirements and generate a structured PRD, including: feature list, page flowchart, field suggestions (such as order status, user ID), interface drafts, etc.;

• The output document can be directly passed to design or development for seamless connection.

NO.2 Prototype and UI Design

• Provides three ways to generate page prototypes:

① Natural language generation: Describe the requirement in one sentence to generate an interactive prototype;

② Image-based generation: Upload hand-drawn sketches or reference webpage screenshots, intelligently recognize the structure, and restore it as a design draft;

③ Component-based generation: Choose from component libraries like TDesign / MUI / Shadcn to automatically assemble compliant page designs.

• You can optimize the visual style in real-time through commands, such as "change the button to blue" or "make it more high-tech."

NO.3 Front-end Development

• Built-in Figma can directly extract information from design drafts and generate maintainable HTML source code with a clear structure, naming conventions, and standard front-end code that facilitates subsequent modifications by developers;
• Supports generating versions compatible with Web/iOS/Android and unifying styles.

NO.4 Backend Development

• Built-in Tencent Cloud Development CloudBase and Supabase (international version only) services, which can automatically configure and generate cloud databases, user authentication, and other backend requirements;

• Developers can complete core functionality without manual configuration.

NO.5 Online Deployment

• Supports one-click deployment to remote servers via CloudStudio;

• Supports generating accessible links for quick team trials and feedback.

Among them, in the most labor-intensive coding phase, CodeBuddy AI IDE also transforms into an "all-in-one AI programming assistant," leveraging the capabilities of Tencent Cloud Code Assistant CodeBuddy's coding intelligence Craft to help developers complete coding more efficiently—

● Software Development Intelligence: Independently completes multi-file code generation and rewriting;

● Real-time Code Continuation: Completes writing based on contextual understanding;

● Supports Inline Conversations in Lines/Terminals: No need to switch windows, directly converse with AI in the editor or terminal to solve bugs, run commands, and debug logic.

Let's look at a practical case—

In the development of an e-commerce event page, the traditional method requires 2 days to complete 1 page, while using CodeBuddy AI IDE, the entire process takes less than 2 hours, with efficiency improved by over 10 times: the product manager describes requirements in natural language, generating the first version in 10 minutes; the designer adjusts styles through screenshots, finalizing in 1 hour; developers quickly convert it into code, developing the website in just 30 minutes.

In fact, the greater value of CodeBuddy AI IDE lies in its ability to fill in many gaps that previous AIs could not address. Especially in typical scenarios such as rapid interactive prototype visualization verification, design draft to code conversion, and integrated coding for front-end and back-end debugging.

Now, CodeBuddy AI IDE has opened for internal testing. Visit the official CodeBuddy website https://codebuddy.ai/ to apply for an experience with this AI engineer's capabilities.

On the evening of July 24, the product and R&D colleagues of Tencent Cloud CodeBuddy will also conduct an online live broadcast, demonstrating CodeBuddy step by step. Everyone is welcome to scan the code to make an appointment to watch the live broadcast～!
