Abstract
Implementations are described herein for leveraging prior source code transformations to facilitate automatic creation and/or recommendation of tools for automating aspects of source code transformations captured in real time. In various implementations, a transformation made by a programmer to a source code snipped may be captured in a source code editor application in real time. Based on the transformation and the intent, one or more candidate source code transformations may be identified from one or more repositories of prior source code transformations made by one or more other programmers. The source code editor application may be caused to provide output indicative of a tool that is operable to automate one or more edits associated with both the transformation made by the programmer to the source code snippet and with one or more of the candidate source code transformations.
