The Vision

To create a seamless, AI-powered development workflow by embedding OutSystems Mentor directly within ODC Studio. This integration aims to transform Mentor from a separate assistant into an active co-developer capable of generating features in real-time through natural language prompts.


Key Features

  • Embedded AI Pane: A native "Mentor" sidebar within ODC Studio to provide contextual help without leaving the development environment.
  • Prompt-to-Feature Generation: Enable developers to describe small features (e.g., "Create a CRUD wrapper for this entity" or "Build a validation action for this form") via text prompts.
  • Automated Logic Injection: Mentor would draft the suggested Logic, UI patterns, or Workflows directly into the open ODC application for the developer to review and publish.
  • Contextual Awareness: The AI should understand the existing data model and client-side logic to ensure generated features are compatible and follow best practices.

The Value Add

  • Increased Velocity: Drastically reduces the time spent on repetitive or boilerplate development tasks.
  • Lower Learning Curve: Assists junior developers in implementing complex patterns by following AI-guided prompts.
  • Reduced Context Switching: Keeps developers focused in a single interface, increasing overall productivity.
