GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot is a revolutionary AI tool for developers that works as a 'copilot' when writing code. Created jointly by GitHub and OpenAI based on GPT technology, it's trained on billions of lines of public code.

Capabilities: intelligent autocompletion of entire functions and code blocks, code generation from natural language comments, suggestion of multiple implementation options, automatic test writing, documentation and comment generation, code refactoring and optimization, and explanation of others' code.

Supports dozens of languages: Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, Go, C++, C#, Java, PHP, and many others. Works directly in Visual Studio Code, JetBrains IDEs, Neovim, and other popular editors.

GitHub Copilot Chat adds an interactive AI chat for answering code questions, explaining errors, assisting with debugging and architectural decisions. Understands the context of your entire project. Research shows developers with Copilot write code 55% faster. Particularly useful for boilerplate code, working with unfamiliar libraries, and learning new patterns. For: professional developers, beginner programmers for learning, teams to accelerate development, open-source contributors. Special free licenses available for students and maintainers of popular projects.
