What differentiates GitHub Copilot from other similar products?

Apart from providing code completion, it also has access to the codebase so with this context, Github copilot shares suggestions such that the changes can be implemented easily into the codebase. The code refatoring, commenting and unit testing can be completed with exponential pace as github copilot is good with these.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The best feature of copilot is that is automatically completes the function even before I start implementing it. But unit testing Is stand out feature, I have to do is right the correct prompt and copilot generates a comprehensive unit test cases now I only have to review it once and its good to go.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The irritating part of copilot is that, when I am typing something manually but generates a code that is not relevant at all, and now I have to slow down to undo this suggestion. This is not always but sometime it happens. Additionaly, I wish copilot had a feature where I can provide link to a documentation and copilot can visit the link and then share the conde suggestions based on the content on the documentation.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would strongly recommend to use copilot as it enhaces productivity by many folds. It will definalty speed up your development cycle and cost is worth it. If you are willing to spent more then there better tools that gives better suggestions with media uploads. However github copilot has almost all the features that a code completion AI tool needs to have.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy
