GitHub Copilot Demo - Converts comments to code

GitHub Copilot is as good at writing natural language as it is at writing code, so in fact it can complete your comments for you.It can complete an explanation, and then, line by line, allow the user to tab through the code that does what was prompted in English.

"The Best AI Copilot Available on Visual Code"

4.5/5

What do you like best about GitHub Copilot?

Have been using this for the past year, and let me admit. It's one of the best copilot i've been using so far.

It's just like chatGPT but more easy to use and can be accessed on the IDE by hitting the shortkey.

One of its main strength is the way it can comprehend an algorithm and implement it with due of the respect of the previous syntaxs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub Copilot?

- The model is not trained enough to comprehend a somewhat difficult question

- Sometimes it ignored the prompt that's given

- Hallucination sorta happen. E.g, it calls for a function of a module that doesn't exist Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
