# Cline > Conversational AI coding assistant that helps developers write and modify code through natural language. Cline is a powerful conversational AI coding assistant designed to streamline the development process through natural language interactions. Unlike traditional coding tools that require specific commands or syntax, Cline enables developers to express their programming needs in plain English, making coding more accessible and efficient. The platform excels at understanding the context of your codebase and project requirements, allowing it to generate, modify, and debug code based on conversational prompts. Cline can work with multiple programming languages and frameworks, adapting to your specific development environment. Its ability to maintain context throughout a conversation means developers can have extended problem-solving sessions without constantly reestablishing project parameters. ## Features - Natural language code generation and modification - Contextual understanding of codebases - Multi-step problem solving through conversation - Support for multiple programming languages and frameworks - Code explanation and documentation assistance - Bug identification and fixing suggestions - Refactoring recommendations - Learning from interaction patterns ## Integrations Terminal environments, Code editors and IDEs, Version control systems, CI/CD pipelines, Documentation tools ## Platforms WINDOWS, MACOS, LINUX, WEB ## Pricing Open Source, Free tier available ## Version 2.1.0 ## Links - Website: https://cline.bot - Documentation: https://docs.cline.bot - Repository: https://github.com/cline/cline - EveryDev.ai: https://www.everydev.ai/tools/cline
