Section titled “Concept”Kiro is AWS’s AI-powered code editor (IDE), where an AI agent helps from planning all the way to writing code. Its main idea is the spec — that is, a written plan before writing code. First the requirements are written, then the design, then a list of small tasks. Then the AI agent writes code task by task, and the developer checks and approves each step. This keeps the AI’s work organized and easy to understand, even in big projects.
