Coding in VS Code with Gemma 4 and Ollama

In this video, I’ll show you how to set up local LLM integration directly inside Visual Studio Code — no Cursor, no Copilot, no API keys required.

I’ll walk you through the full process: installing VS Code, setting up Gemma 4 (8B) locally with Ollama, and connecting it to VS Code using the Continue extension. Then we’ll put it to the test by building a simple to-do app from scratch using only the local model.
