# Write Code

> The Paradime Code IDE editor: dbt™-aware autocompletion, keyboard shortcuts, right-click actions, flexible layout, and customizable preferences.

The center of the Code IDE is a VS Code-style editor tuned for dbt™ development. It autocompletes `ref()` and `source()` calls, shows inline Git blame, and opens diff views for changed files, so you can focus on authoring your models.

  Looking for the File Explorer, search, or go-to-definition? Those are covered under [Explore Your Project](/products/code-ide/explore/index).

## What you get

* **Tabs and breadcrumbs**: every open file gets a tab, with a breadcrumb trail showing its location in your project.
* **dbt™-aware editing**: autocompletion for Jinja, dbt™ functions, and YAML, plus inline `ref()` and `source()` code lens.
* **Inline Git blame**: the author and age of the current line, powered by [GitLens](/products/code-ide/version-control/gitlens).
* **Diff views**: files with uncommitted changes open side by side against their last committed version.
