Next Edit
Use Next Edit to flow through complex changes across your codebase by thinking one step ahead. Cut down the time you spend on repetitive work like refactors, library upgrades, and schema changes.
About Next Edit
Next Edit keeps you moving through your codebase by suggesting changes to your code based on your recent changes and other context. You can jump to the next edit–in the same file or across your codebase–and quickly accept or reject the suggested change with a single keystroke.
Using Next Edits
When Next Edit has a suggestion, you will see helper text at the end of the currently selected line. The suggestion will indicate where in the current file or in another file that you will find the change. To jump to the next suggestion, press Cmd/Ctrl ; and after reviewing the change, press Cmd/Ctrl Enter again to accept or Esc Esc to reject.
