This is amazingly short on details.

What are the programming languages supported, for example?

Well, you can ask Bard, and it (for me) lists 13 of the “over 20” languages.

Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, C, R, Ruby, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, SQL, HTML, CSS

I don't have access to Bard. I'm skeptical that's a valid approach. Language models are famously incapable of introspection. Does it change the answer if you tell it it's wrong, for example?
