Abstract
Lately, new developments in software tools are using affective computing, but the feeling aspects of programming have not received much study. The paper considers whether Emotion AI might turn regular development tools into systems that instantly react to and adjust to developers' moods. Thanks to Emotion AI, developers can experience empathy and understand coding in a new way that protects well-being, saves mental energy, and helps get the job done faster. We begin by reviewing certain writing on affective compu-ting, developer experience (DevEx), and emotional labor in programming and exploring how emotional AI can be integrated into IDEs and browser coding tools. We prove that feedback from facial emotions, voice patterns, and body signals can be applied immediately to adapt user interfaces, start helpful actions, and create more innovative development systems. Nearly all of our user tests suggest that developers engage better, are less irritated, and handle mistakes faster. The final part of the study highlights the ethical points and design concerns of creating emotional tools. It discusses how the rise of this tool could change the future of how software engineers interact with computers.
