Github Copilot

GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered coding assistant created by GitHub + OpenAI.
It sits inside your code editor (like VS Code, IntelliJ, or Neovim) and:

Suggests code

Completes functions

Writes logic from comments

Generates documentation

Explains errors

Helps you debug

Learns your coding style

Saves hours of Googling

It’s trained on millions of public code repositories and programming patterns — which means it has seen more code than all your college seniors combined.

In simple words:
Copilot is like having a senior developer sitting beside you, helping you write code faster.

Except this senior dev:
never gets tired
never judges your silly bugs
responds instantly
works 24/7
doesn’t ask for a salary (well… almost )
