About Amazon Q Developer

Amazon Q Developer (formerly CodeWhisperer) is AWS's AI coding assistant that provides real-time code suggestions, security scanning, and cloud operations support. It integrates with VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and the AWS Console, offering code completions trained on a broad range of open-source and Amazon code. The security scanning feature checks generated code for vulnerabilities and hardcoded credentials, which addresses one of the major concerns with AI-generated code. For AWS users, it can help with CloudFormation templates, CDK code, and AWS API usage, making it particularly strong for cloud-native development. The free tier for individual developers is generous — unlimited code suggestions and security scans. The professional tier adds organizational controls, policy management, and custom model training. If you are building on AWS, Amazon Q Developer is worth trying as a complement to or replacement for GitHub Copilot.
