BIKODE

What BIKODE is

BIKODE is a free, open-source AI-first code editor built on the Notepad2e core. Its multi-turn agent can read files, write code, run commands, and search the web from inside the editor. The maker says it supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and other AI providers. An integrated terminal and native Git interface handle command-line work, commits, diffs, and branches. A C-based plugin API extends the IDE through shared libraries, and chat supports sending GIFs. BIKODE is available for Windows and macOS under the 3-clause BSD license. Windows is the primary platform: its build is a native Win32 editor around Scintilla, described as a portable single executable with minimal RAM use and no Java or Electron. The macOS distribution runs the Windows Bikode.exe through Wine or CrossOver, so it is not a native Mac port. Boondock Labs, based in Edenvale, South Africa, makes the editor. Builds and release assets are published through GitHub Releases.
