Use GitLab Duo Code Suggestions to write code more efficiently by using generative AI to suggest code while you're developing.
Before you start using Code Suggestions, decide if you want to use the default GitLab-hosted LLM to manage Code Suggestions requests, or [deploy a self-hosted model](../../../../administration/gitlab_duo_self_hosted/_index.md).
