View detailsGitHub Copilot
AI pair programmer that writes code with you, inside your editor.
GitHub Copilot is an AI coding assistant from GitHub that works inside the editor you already use, including VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, Eclipse, and Xcode. As you type it suggests whole lines and blocks of code, and in chat mode it can explain code, write functions, fix errors, and draft tests. It understands the files you have open, so suggestions fit the project you are working on.
Copilot handles the repetitive parts of programming: boilerplate, test scaffolding, data transformations, and small utilities. It can also review a pull request, summarise a diff, and suggest fixes for failing tests. Developers use it to move faster on routine work and to explore unfamiliar libraries or languages with working examples instead of documentation alone.
The assistant is most useful when the developer stays in charge: accept suggestions that fit, reject the rest, and always review generated code before shipping it. For students and hobbyists the free plan covers light use, while daily coders usually land on Pro at $10 a month. GitHub also offers Copilot free to verified students and to maintainers of popular open-source projects.
