ChatDev

ChatDev 2.0 (DevAll) is a zero-code multi-agent platform for "Developing Everything". It lets users rapidly build and execute customized multi-agent systems through simple configuration, defining agents, workflows, and tasks to orchestrate complex scenarios such as data visualization, 3D generation, and deep research. The platform evolved from a specialized software development multi-agent system into a broader orchestration tool. It supports SaaS deployment for developers and entrepreneurs seeking low‑code automation.

ChatDev 1.0 (Legacy) operates as a Virtual Software Company, where intelligent agents participate in seminars to automate the software development life cycle, including design, coding, testing, and documentation. This legacy version provides the foundational paradigm for agent collaboration and is referenced to explain the evolution toward DevAll.

The repository documents setup, prerequisites, and how to run ChatDev locally or in containers. It includes news about releases and project milestones, and describes modular components such as the backend, orchestration, frontend, and tools for extension. The project emphasizes multi-agent coordination and workflow execution across tasks that involve reasoning, code generation, and data handling.

It lists environments, installation commands, configuration tips, and run commands for both development and production-like setups. It also highlights related research and papers that underpin the multi-agent collaboration approach.
