Definition
GitHub Copilot is an AI coding assistant that suggests code completions and entire functions as you write programs.
How It Works
Copilot learned from billions of lines of public code on GitHub. As you type, it predicts what code you want to write next and offers suggestions.
It works inside your code editor and adapts to your coding style and project context.
Why It Matters
Copilot speeds up programming by handling routine coding tasks. Developers can focus on problem-solving while the AI writes boilerplate code and common patterns.
It makes programming more accessible to beginners and more efficient for experts.
