You can even step back from a template-based edit, tweak the copied prompt and retry it.<\/p>\n<h1>Typical Use<\/h1>\n<p>Quick Edit templates are useful for common small actions like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Generating a ToString() method<\/li>\n<li>Adding null checks<\/li>\n<li>Adding try\/catch wrappers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The benefit of using AI instead of just code snippets is that you can give reasonably generic instructions and still get good results. For instance, generating a <strong>ToString()<\/strong> method by just printing the values of all properties would not work for large classes. Printing the first 3 properties would not always be useful. But something like &#8220;pick the most important ones&#8221; and &#8220;if the struct contains a length-like field or property, print {N} elements&#8221; will produce reasonably good results. And, since AI editing is iterative and fast, you can give the AI a nudge like &#8220;use Foo instead of Bar&#8221; during the reviewing phase, and it will very quickly change the proposed implementation to your liking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Editing Templates are reusable prompt templates that can be &#8220;attached&#8221; to functions, classes or any other types of symbols:You<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=915"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":919,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/915\/revisions\/919"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sysprogs.com\/tutorials\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
