Introduction to the Kunpeng DevKit Plugin

The Kunpeng DevKit, an end-to-end tool kit designed for developers, offers a series of plug-and-play tools for software development, porting, compilation and debugging, and performance tuning on the Kunpeng platform based on Visual Studio Code (VS Code). The Kunpeng DevKit consists of the Porting Advisor, Affinity Analyzer, Development Assistant, Compiler and Debugger, System Profiler, Java Profiler, and System Diagnosis.

It supports the IDE frontend GUI and one-click backend installation, facilitates coding, automatically detects and installs Kunpeng compilers, performs compilation and debugging, visualizes cases, provides coding assistance, and analyzes and scans projects. You can use the Kunpeng DevKit plugin to directly deploy the whole Kunpeng DevKit, or install certain required subtools only.

Table 1 lists the tools provided by the Kunpeng DevKit:
