StarCoder was trained in over 80 programming languages as well as text from GitHub repositories, including documentation and Jupyter programming notebooks, plus it was trained on over 1 trillion tokens and with a context window of 8192 tokens, giving the model boasts an impressive 15.5 billion parameters. StarCoder, is a free AI code-generating system alternative to GitHub’s Copilot, DeepMind’s AlphaCode, and Amazon’s CodeWhisperer. The model created as a part of the BigCode Initiative is an improved version of the StarCoderBase model trained on 35 billion Python tokens.

Hugging Face and ServiceNow, have partnered to develop StarCoder, a new open-source language model for code.
