About GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot is an AI coding assistant developed by GitHub in partnership with OpenAI. Powered by OpenAI Codex (a model trained on billions of lines of public code), it integrates as an extension into VS Code, JetBrains, Neovim, and other editors.

Copilot suggests single lines, full functions, tests, documentation, and even entire file structures in real-time as you type. It understands context from comments, function names, and surrounding code, making it feel like a knowledgeable pair programmer that anticipates your next move.

GitHub Copilot Chat adds a conversational interface directly in the editor, allowing you to ask questions about code, get explanations, request refactoring, and debug issues. Copilot Workspace (in preview) takes it further by planning and implementing entire features from a GitHub issue.

For professional developers, Copilot has become an indispensable productivity tool, reportedly increasing coding speed by 55% according to GitHub's research.
