SWISCO: Building a modern, reusable codebase with Tabnine

SWISCO, a family-owned company that transitioned from a small repair shop in the 1970s to a thriving ecommerce business, is now managed by third-generation CEO Paul Pallas, who is also responsible for its evolving codebase. To modernize this decade-old codebase, Paul turned to Tabnine, an AI-driven code assistant discovered through a Reddit forum, which he appreciates for its privacy commitments and extensive language support. Using Symfony and the PHPStorm IDE, Paul has found Tabnine invaluable in accelerating development, understanding legacy code, and improving productivity by reducing reliance on traditional resources like Google and Stack Overflow. The AI tool's capabilities, such as its Explain Code AI chat agent and tailored code completion suggestions, have helped streamline his workflow and instill better coding habits, making it an indispensable part of his programming routine.
