Google's Gemini Advanced chatbot has introduced direct integration with GitHub, enhancing its capabilities as a coding assistant. This new feature allows users to connect to both public and private GitHub repositories to generate or modify functions, explain complex code, ask questions about the codebase, and debug software. Users can activate the integration by clicking the plus button in the prompt bar and importing code via a GitHub URL. Additionally, the Canvas option available to Gemini Advanced Pro 2.5 users enables the duplication and modification of entire projects, streamlining development workflows. This integration positions Gemini alongside other AI coding assistants like ChatGPT, providing developers with faster and more efficient coding tools.
