The 10x Pretender is a VS Code extension that makes you look like a coding genius by simulating realistic typing from your clipboard or AI-generated code. Perfect for live coding demos, presentations, or impressing colleagues with your "incredible" typing speed.
## Note
To use the 10x Pretender extension:
1. Obtain a Google Generative AI API key from [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/apikey).
2. Set the API key in the extension settings to enable Gemini code generation.
3. Toggle the typing mode using the status bar icon or keyboard shortcut.
## Features
- **Realistic Typing Simulation:** Automatically types text from your clipboard at a natural pace.
- **AI-Powered Code Generation:** Integrates with Google's Gemini API to generate code snippets based on your plain English descriptions.
- **Status Bar Integration:** Easily toggle the typing mode on and off with a visible status bar icon.
- **Seamless Pausing:** Automatically pauses typing when you move the cursor to a different position, and resumes when you return.
- **Custom Text Entry:** Manually input text to be typed out if you don't want to use clipboard content.
## Requirements
- A stable internet connection is required to use the Gemini code generation feature.
- You must have a Google Generative AI API key to use the AI code generation feature. You can get one at [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/apikey).
## Extension Settings
- `10x-pretender.apiKey`: API key for Google Generative AI.
