Hot keys: Tab - accept a text completion Esc - dismiss the text Cmd + R arrow - accept a part of text completion Cmd + enter - suggestions Cmd + I - inline chat
Excellent job! Very concise. And you also provided both windows and mac. Some programmers forget some of us are windows users lol. So great job including both!
Back in 2010 I tried learning to code for the "old" original xbox. where is my IntelliSense ? where the docs? ow, cool, MSDN cd's. Then how did they make games in the 90s? ow, 1 book, maybe mailinglists. M68K is such a cool arch, like Z80 or 6502 but wide. I understand now why my dad got stuck in basic, he had just lost his computer buddy and other friends where not so tech savvy. You really needed to have a good book, social contacts or uni/workplace. these days, you can spend hours at home and get things done. (or not) you say its easy, and on this front, yes. but what language to pick? what tool to use for what? how do you tell if the AI is wrong? this comes with experience and this still is something you need to grind for. just like yesteryear. So your not wrong, but also... its differently the same. (like, ARM, x86 or RiscV be the best bet these days for assembler/bare metal C?)
@@robertf57 over this long weekend I realized this and appreciate what we have. I am in healthcare, still learned typescript to the point of building apps using types generics async programming (these were probably the hardest concepts to grasp) and databases from scratch in 3 days. Like literally knew no typescript and only vaguely familiar with js. 3 days to literally build apps like a floor staffing management system that actually works!! I used gpt to help me learn, I used it so much but it just made it so easy compared to just following a book. I wouldnt trust gpt too too much for pathophysiology though lol
Thanks for showing how to partially accept ghost code. I didn't know it existed, and I was very frustrated by too many lines of code that I didn't really need.
Fantastic video! Straight to the point. I hit that Subscribe button in one second! I don't want to know every single thing that Copilot can do, just the super useful stuff. And, not to be too harsh, but I don't need a long intro with jokes and a 20 second intro with music and flashy images. I need this!!!
I don’t know why, but sometimes when I am in Chat it shows that it matches with public code, even after I changed settings of code visibility in GitHub
Inline chat is great but still need to be improved. When using it in jupyter notebooks instead of giving me one extra line of code it deletes all the previous code and just leaves me with the ‘answer to my question’
And readability is difficult as soon as the code it is modifying reaches 10 to 15 lines. There is yellow stuff green stuff red stuff. Some //// lines. Confusing
Unless you are using 2 GitHub accounts. Then you can say goodbye to the Chat functionality. It just won't work. Then Copilot support will point fingers at the VSCode Team and vice versa
thanks for this really useful video, now i understand i could use ctrl+rightarrow to accept the next word of the inline suggestion, but when i try that key binding, i could not make things done in visual studio as in vs code, how could i get the similar feature in visual studio? do need your help very much
Copilot is great, but sometimes I still need to get back to GPT (3.5) to solve some problems, where I need more general approach. I mean, it's to focused on code, and so even earlier and weaker llms are capable of solving some staff better.
Great, video. spot on. you don't include the ctrl + shift + "i" - opens the chat/hides copilot's chat. - Go forward and see how better life will be with copilot ending remarks lol :-) thanks
Students can get it for free as part of GitHub Student Pack. But I wouldn't recommend it for inexperienced freshmen students, they'd get too lazy to learn the fundamentals of programming and would simply become coders, without understanding a thing of what they're doing

Hello, how do I let Copilot index multiple files (like for a website project)?! For ex: I'd like to let Copilot add a sign-up option, via Google / FB account. How would you do that? Thanks.
I used copilot for a long time using the license given by the github developer pack but this time I used all the features that exist. integration vscode with copilot is very indulgent 🤤
It looks like it's set to ctrl + enter on Mac. You can change it in your key bindings (search for "Open Completions Panel"). They should probably default to cmd instead of ctrl, but cmd + enter is also bound to "Inline Chat: Accept Changes" so they might have changed it to prevent a conflict.

Amazing video and amazing tool! As a newbie to the game dev field, this has helped me so much with learning C++.

Thank you for making that clear
So useful thank you🎉
Just got copilot but it refuses to work for me :/

@@coopernik thanks for the feedback. We're aware that inline chat has some room for improvement and we're working on it!
I would also love it if it worked with the .NET interactive kernel and Polyglot notebooks.

Ghost text doesn't seem to be available (at least for me) on Visual Studio (not vs code). And I can't find a setting that turns it on or off.
VS may have two extensions - one for Ghost Text and one for Chat. Can you confirm you have GitHub Copilot and GitHub Copilot Chat installed?
@@codeYep. Both are installed.
@@codeTurns out there's a Setting for line complete that needed to be set to true. It works now.
Thanks, great video. perfectly succinct.
Great, video. spot on. you don't include the ctrl + shift + "i" - opens the chat/hides copilot's chat. - Go forward and see how better life will be with copilot ending remarks lol :-) thanks
What font are u using ? Many thanks!
How do you get that double star icon in the terminal at the end of the video?
Thanks for the info!
when I add this comment "// function to remove a specific number from an array", it only adds ghost text for one line, not for the entire method
Does it support none coders like chatGPT? Just instruct with a text prompt what you want to create? Any beginner tutorial like that?
Try it out. It's pretty beginner friendly.
Give me copilot for free .... I will watch all vs code copilot related videos 😅
I have watched all, give me copilot for free.
Pay up 😂
just do open source development

is it me or is the shortcut for inline not well defined and often not working? you say CTRL I, in my visual studio it says ALT + / and neither works!

soooo worth it the $10/mo. but im a student so its even better bc its freeee!!!! thank you github!!
Thank you for the guidance :)
What's your theme bro? I want to use it
Thanks so much, you kicked me do it! I just did it!
Awesome 🔥🔥
This video convinced me.
what iis the VS theme youre using ?
Hello,
how do I let Copilot index multiple files (like for a website project)?!
For ex: I'd like to let Copilot add a sign-up option, via Google / FB account.
How would you do that?
Thanks.
Have them opened in the editor, or specify @workspace in the Copilot Chat
@@Naej7 @workspace is the answer!
Good video! Thanks

is there a way to find specific text from github copilot chat ?
like a search for chat history?
@@code yes

Wow this is amazing
I mostly need it in edge cases and there it cant really help me... :(
It can run in windows env but cannot run in wsl2 env
thanks for the video
Note that Copilot won't be available during code interviews.
Only if the interview/employer is crappy or for very specific extraconfidential projects
@@TheMelo1993 if thats the case then i am sure more than 90 % of interviewers are crappy
Visual Studio on MacOS:can't get to inline chat as Command-I gets trapped by VS!
Can't wait until Github Copilot has the year-old GPT-4.
It’s been powered by gpt4 since November

And also cmd + enter is not working on Mac. Look on this issue
It looks like it's set to ctrl + enter on Mac. You can change it in your key bindings (search for "Open Completions Panel"). They should probably default to cmd instead of ctrl, but cmd + enter is also bound to "Inline Chat: Accept Changes" so they might have changed it to prevent a conflict.
CTRL+Enter (instead of CMD+Enter) works for me as described on macOS VS Code
just use the Cody extension
Is there any way to get it for free to learn it.
There’s a try of one month
This takes impostor syndrome to another level.
Can i get for free? if not what is the free alternative?
being more productive and more productive, more productive and more productive. be more productive and more productive. at the end there are no human.
Biggest question is, can I turn it off?
This no help. I subscribed, but am unable to access. Beginning video started AFTER what I need
