Left out of the Coding Revolution? Here's a way in.
Everyone’s using coding agents to massively improve productivity. But your team works with code written in a language LLMs aren’t trained on - a proprietary language, a domain-specific language, or something rare. How do you join the coding revolution?
We’ll show you real-world examples where a company has trained a model on such a language, by transforming their code and documents into a trainable dataset, generating synthetic data, and customizing their agent harness to function in this low-information environment. Don’t be stuck in 2024!
