TabNine

What it does

Predicts the rest of the line or block as you type, across many languages, integrating into VS Code and other editors. What lives in this repository is only configuration and an issue tracker: the vendor states plainly that the backend is closed source, so this is not an open-source tool despite appearances. Free and paid tiers are set out on the vendor's site. Since it handles source code, check before rolling it out whether your code leaves the machine.
