GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot is "Your AI pair programmer". It uses the OpenAI Codex to suggest code and entire functions in real-time, right from your editor. GitHub Copilot provides suggestions for numerous languages and a wide variety of frameworks, but works especially well for Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, Go, C# and C++.
