Prestige IDE: A Real Code Editor for VEX

Syntax highlighting, autocomplete, and AI suggestions. Inside Houdini. With Prestige IDE, you'll feel like at home.

The Problem with Houdini's Code Editor

Houdini's built-in wrangle editor is minimal. No autocomplete, basic highlighting, no inline documentation. You end up switching between the editor and the docs constantly, and you get lost when code gets too messy.

Prestige IDE is a separate panel that syncs with your wrangle nodes. Edit code with proper tooling, changes sync back automatically.

Features

NEW: AI Copilot

The IDE includes an AI assistant that watches what you're typing and suggests completions. Like GitHub Copilot, but trained on VEX patterns.

• Start typing a loop, it suggests the full structure

• Write a comment describing what you want, it generates the code

• Uses RAG to ground suggestions in real VEX documentation

• Tab to accept, like in your favorite IDE

Syntax Highlighting

VEX-specific highlighting for functions, attributes, variables, and comments.

Function Autocomplete

Type a function name, get suggestions from 400+ VEX functions with signatures and descriptions.

Attribute Autocomplete

Type @ and see attributes from your actual geometry. P, N, Cd, plus any custom attributes you've created.

Node Sync

Select a wrangle node, its code appears in the IDE. Edit and save, changes go back to the node.

Autocomplete Details

VEX Language

400+ functions indexed from Houdini docs. Each entry includes: function signature, parameter types, return type, and a brief description. Fuzzy matching: type "nse" to find "noise".

Geometry Attributes

Reads attributes from the input geometry of your wrangle node. Shows type (float, vector, int) and which geometry input it comes from.

Local Variables

Parses your code to find declared variables. Suggests them when you start typing.

Parameter Creation

The IDE can create spare parameters on your wrangle node. Use ch() or chv()in your code, and the IDE offers to create the corresponding parameter.

Availability

Prestige IDE is a PRO feature. Free users can still use the V1 chat assistant.
