GitHub Copilot for Developers

GitHub Copilot is a code development-oriented application designed to make it easier to create software applications by using a Large Language Model (LLM) Artificial Intelligence (AI) system trained using public repositories in GitHub covering the range of programming languages in those public repositories.

Since the introduction of GitHub Copilot, software development has been changed forever by giving developers a powerful tool designed to help them optimize their work through suggested code completions. Now, with GitHub Copilot Chat developers can have interactive conversations with Copilot to better understand and refine the code suggestions.

Developers who want to embrace Copilot to become productive will need to learn new skills, including how to work with it using prompt engineering. Prompt engineering is the practice of interactively building a prompt, or structured question, to help Copilot derive the best possible solution to critical coding questions.

Join Coveros for this innovative training class designed to help software developers come up to speed on GitHub Copilot and get a jump start on how to effectively incorporate Copilot into your software developer workflow.

Key takeaways from this class include:
