Exploring AI Developer Tools for OpenEdge: Windsurf, Claude Code, Google Antigravity & Co.
Modern AI developer tools are changing how enterprise applications are understood, extended, and modernized. In this webinar, Mike Fechner gives a practical overview of today’s most relevant AI-assisted development tools - including Windsurf, Claude Code, Google Antigravity, and other emerging solutions - with a clear focus on OpenEdge development.
You’ll learn how these tools can help when working with large and long-lived OpenEdge codebases, for example by supporting:
faster code comprehension and analysis
refactoring and modernization tasks
generation of ABL-related artifacts
reasoning across complex application structures
A key part of the session is understanding where these tools work well - and where they don’t. We’ll look at limitations, context handling, model strengths, and how well different tools integrate into editors and IDEs.
What we will cover:
Core architectural concepts behind modern AI developer tools
Tool and model comparison for code understanding, refactoring, and AI-assisted development
Practical patterns and best practices for OpenEdge developers and architects
This webinar is designed for OpenEdge developers, software architects, and technical leads who want to evaluate AI-assisted tools realistically and apply them effectively in professional environments.
As the first session in our 2026 AI webinar series, it sets the stage for deeper technical follow-up sessions throughout the year.
