Source Code Editor
Wing's source code editor implements a powerful suite of code editing and navigation features for Python, based on both static and dynamic (runtime) source code analysis.
The AI actions icon in the top right of the editor provides a dropdown menu of AI-driven code actions for explaining, reviewing, and improving code. See AI Actions for details.
