# Immediate Editor Feedback

> Metalama provides immediate error notifications and real-time access to code changes within the IDE without recompilation.

Canonical: https://postsharp.net/metalama/features/design-time-feedback.html

Metalama operates both within the compiler process and the IDE. Your aspects are triggered whenever a relevant change is detected in the code.

This means you don't have to build your project to see warnings and errors or to reference generated artifacts in your source code.
