Chat with your codebase using Rust and Candle

Learn to build a Rust CLI using Candle ML to create a local, hardware‑agnostic code‑assistant that lets you query your codebase.

Overview

While Python is the most common language used for building ML frameworks, a Rust-based open-source ML framework called Candle ( supported by Huggingface) has been picking up and promises better performance, high-speed processing and is hardware agnostic.
I built a Rust-based CLI tool that works like any search agent that you’ll find inside your coding IDEs.
