Continue Tutorial: Open-Source AI Coding Agents for IDE and CLI

A practical guide to continuedev/continue, covering IDE usage, headless/CLI workflows, model configuration, team collaboration, and enterprise operations.

GitHub Repo License: Apache 2.0 Docs

Why This Track Matters

Continue has evolved into a full agent platform spanning IDE agents, CLI/TUI workflows, and headless cloud automation. Teams need operating patterns, not just setup instructions.

This track focuses on:

  • deterministic code-completion and agent workflows
  • safer refactor/debug/test loops
  • practical model and config governance
  • team and enterprise scaling patterns
