Copilot Experience

I used GitHub Copilot extensively throughout the development process. It helped in writing boilerplate code for components, generating utility functions, and suggesting efficient TypeScript types. Copilot's autocomplete feature made it faster to implement repetitive patterns, and the model switcher provided different suggestions for more complex logic.

For example, when creating the analyzeCode function, Copilot provided a clear starting point for parsing code and generating statistics, saving me significant time. It also helped refine the structure of the CodeAnalyzerResult type, ensuring type safety in my project.

GitHub Models

I leveraged GitHub’s LLM capabilities to prototype functions and refine my implementation. By combining prompts and edits, I was able to iterate on functionality quickly. It proved especially useful for brainstorming ideas and debugging challenging areas of the project.

Conclusion

Working on DevBuddy was a rewarding experience. The project showcases how AI-powered tools like Copilot can streamline the development process and empower developers to focus on innovation. This challenge also gave me an opportunity to explore new features and refine my problem-solving skills.
