GitHub Copilot
Overview
GitHub Copilot transforms the developer experience by providing contextualized AI assistance throughout the software development lifecycle. It moves beyond simple code completions to offer chat assistance in the IDE, code explanations, and answers to documentation questions. By integrating into their workflow, Copilot helps developers focus on higher-value tasks, fostering innovation and job satisfaction. Users report significant gains in productivity and happiness, allowing them to solve problems more effectively and ship software faster. As the world's most widely adopted AI developer tool, it integrates natively into leading editors and is built directly into the GitHub platform.
