Set up Tabnine to get instant, privacy-safe code completions without sending your code to the cloud.
Search for 'Tabnine' in your IDE's plugin marketplace. Install and restart. The plugin activates automatically on supported file types.
In Tabnine settings, select 'Local' model for maximum privacy (code never leaves your machine) or 'Cloud' for more accurate completions.
As you type, Tabnine shows ghost-text completions. Press Tab to accept, Escape to dismiss. Completions improve over time as Tabnine learns your codebase patterns.
Tabnine can complete entire lines and short blocks. When you see a multi-line suggestion appear, press Tab once to accept each line sequentially.
With Tabnine Pro or Enterprise, enable 'Team Learning' so the model is trained on your shared codebase. This dramatically improves suggestions for internal APIs and patterns.
In settings, control how aggressively Tabnine shows suggestions. Reduce frequency if completions are distracting; increase for boilerplate-heavy code.
