Rovo Dev is now generally available in VS Code (www.atlassian.com)

Rovo Dev has officially launched as a general availability extension within Visual Studio Code, enhancing the existing Atlassian VS Code integration. This innovative AI agent aims to streamline developers' workflows by providing context-aware assistance directly in the IDE, enabling them to manage tasks related to Jira, Bitbucket, and Confluence without leaving their coding environment. By reducing the friction caused by switching between different tools, Rovo Dev allows developers to focus better on their coding tasks. The significance of Rovo Dev lies in its ability to automate mundane tasks and facilitate access to crucial project context, thereby improving development efficiency. With features such as instant responses to inquiries about the codebase, automated drafting of Jira items and pull requests, and integration with both Atlassian tools and third-party platforms like GitHub, Rovo Dev enhances team productivity by combining necessary documentation and code history seamlessly within VS Code. As part of the Atlassian Teamwork Graph, it leverages organizational knowledge to help developers plan, code, review, and ship features faster while maintaining their flow and focus.
