So I am in the middle of a messy Laravel project I took over. Sometimes when I try to refactor some mess, I just... leave it as it is... then I start to create a comment like:
I just started typing like: // Well, – and it autocompleted like that, wow... a freakin' mind reader!
Then I went as I mean (here it went a bit off, but I continued) tried, then it autocompleted it to "I mean I tried to fix it." Great! I put two more dots and continued with the but and guess what: "but this whole thing is a mess."
// Well, it's not really a coupon, but it's a coupon-like thing.
// I mean, I tried to fix it... but this whole thing is a mess.
It is just... amazing.😅
Of course, you can utilize GitHub Copilot in a bit better cases, like actually auto-completing code.
For example, I wanted to update the amount on the Invoice whenever an invoice gets saved.
I just typed a quick comment like:
// Update invoice items upon saving Invoice
And bummm... there is the perfect Laravel code.
Of course, it can be off many times, but I find it a beneficial addition.
I'm completely sold on this product, and I hope its monthly cost range will be around a webStorm or PhpStorm.
