Getting Started: Introducing Velo AI

Let's kick things off by delving into Velo AI, an innovative tool that empowers Wix Studio users to craft code efficiently. What makes Velo AI stand out is its ability to generate code on the fly, saving you substantial time and effort.

To start accessing the AI magic, you'll need to add the coding functionalities to your Wix website. Simply navigate to the `Code` section and hit `Start Coding`. This step enlivens the coding capabilities for your site, showing you options like Page Code, Global Code, CSS, and even some advanced back-end stuff. But wait, we still need to locate Velo AI.

Unveiling the Power of the Wix IDE

To find Velo AI, we open the gates to the Wix IDE—the `Integrated Development Environment`. A word to the wise: if you've ever explored coding software such as VS Code, you'll find Wix IDE quite familiar. While Wix IDE serves numerous purposes, our primary focus today is busting open the doors to the AI assistant within.

Accessing the Assistant

Once you're in the IDE, direct your gaze to the bottom right corner of your screen to find the tiny AI assistant icon. At this point, we're going to interact with it by selecting `Generate Code` from the provided options. This particular feature is an absolute lifesaver if you're less inclined towards manually crafting your CSS and HTML.

AI Magic: Automating Your Footer Copyright

Here's where Velo AI gets exciting. Our mission is to automate the copyright notice update in the footer. Typically, you'd have to manually update the copyright year—a tiny detail that often slips the mind. With Velo AI, fret not!

Sentient Coding

Your wizardly input will look something like this: *"Can you write code to automatically update the copyright year in my footer?"*. Once you hit `Send`, watch the AI conjure its brilliance. In under 20 seconds, you'll have a complete solution—code snippets along with the necessary instructions—presented to you as if by magic.

One notable caveat: the generated instructions might suggest placing code in your *Page Code*. Don't be fooled! For a universally updated footer, deposit your code in the *Global Code* area instead. 🎩 Tada!

Implementing the Code

So, what have we learned? You've scooped the code (courtesy of our AI assistant) and pasted it within the *Source* section of your *Master Page*. With a bit of tactile finesse, the copyright year is now dynamic, gearing up to refresh each year on every page automatically.

Navigating Some Technical Tidbits

A couple of things to keep in mind: while navigating within the Wix IDE, the main editor's code panel is non-responsive. This means the editor remains inert until the IDE is closed. So if you or another contributor get stuck, just close the IDE—problem solved!

Time-Tested & True

Even though it's a little challenging to verify futuristic year accuracy now, rest assured: once 2024 arrives, Velo AI ensures your code will be up-to-date without any intervention. Witness your footer sprout the correct year effortlessly!

Conclusion & Takeaways

And voila! We've journeyed through using Velo AI to tackle a common, nagging task—and it was as easy as pie. 🍰 The road to seamless coding within Wix Studio is well-paved with this powerful tool at your disposal.
