Free editor plugins
Add your language to the editor you already use.
Don’t switch tools. Keep VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VSCodium, Trae, Eclipse Theia, or Positron exactly as they are, and let NADA translate the code you read and write into the language you think in — across 130+ languages. The file on disk stays plain English, so everything still runs.
For VS Code
NADA for VS Code

Free, and open
The plugins are free forever — and the engine is open.
Every plugin is free, with no account and no trial. They’re powered by the same translation engine as the NADA IDE, released under the MPL-2.0 license — so you can read it, audit it, and trust exactly what it does to your code. Paid plans only ever cover heavy NADA Build AI runs; the language layer never costs a thing.
