Mastering GitHub Copilot: From Setup to Real Projects

О курсе

Unlock the full potential of GitHub Copilot and supercharge your coding workflow! This practical course helps developers use AI-assisted coding in real daily work — from setup in VS Code to building a real project, improving prompts, and configuring Copilot for repeatable workflows. Throughout the course, you’ll explore: GitHub Copilot Fundamentals: Set up Copilot in VS Code and learn core features like code completions, Inline Chat (editor + terminal), Smart Actions, and the Copilot Chat interface. Copilot Basics for Real Use: Understand why Copilot matters, common developer use cases, pricing plans and limitations, and key data privacy basics you should know before using AI at work. Chat Modes + Context: Master Copilot Chat modes — Ask, Edit, and Agent — and learn how to provide the right context so Copilot gives more accurate and useful answers. Real-World Project (Calculator App): Build a modern Calculator App with Copilot end to end: create a development plan, implement the UI, style it, add input limits and number formatting, replace custom logic with a library, write unit tests, and generate documentation. Optimizing Your Workflow: Learn how workspace indexing works, manage ignored files with .gitignore, write effective custom instructions, and use prompt files for repeated tasks and templates. Agent Skills & Custom Agents (Advanced): Understand Agent Skills, explore popular community skills, build your first skill, and use ready-to-use templates. You’ll also get an intro to custom agents and practical templates (as upcoming/optional lessons). By the end of the course, you’ll be able to use GitHub Copilot with confidence: plan features, generate and refactor code, write tests, document your work, and set up reusable AI workflows that save hours every week.
