Yeah but I find code generation stuff I’ve used in the past takes a significant amount of configuration, and will often generate a bunch of code I don’t want it to, and not in the way I want it. Many times it’s more trouble than it’s worth. Having an LLM do it means I don’t have to deal with configuring anything and it’s generating code for the specific thing I want it to so I can quickly validate it did things right and make any additions I want because it’s only generating the thing I’m working on that moment. Also it’s the same tool for the various languages I’m using so that adds more convenience.
Yeah if you have your IDE setup with tools to analyze the datasource and does what you want it to do, that may work better for you. But with the number of DBs I deal with, I’d be spending more time setting up code generation than actually writing code.
