The foundation of StableCode lies in its base model, meticulously trained on a diverse range of programming languages sourced from the BigCode stack-dataset (v1.2). This foundational model was then further refined with popular languages like Python, Go, Java, JavaScript, C, markdown, and C++.

The innovation doesn't stop here. The instruction model, fine-tuned with approximately 120,000 code instruction/response pairs in Alpaca format, stands ready to tackle intricate programming challenges head-on.
