Experience the magic of AI-powered code completions. Get your first suggestion in just a few seconds.
GitHub Copilot learns from what you're typing and suggests complete code in real-time. It works best when you give it context—add a comment describing what you want to do.

Accept the Suggestion
Press Tab to accept the suggestion, or press Escape to reject it. Try a few suggestions to see what Copilot offers!
Copilot works best with clear, descriptive comments. Instead of "make a button," try "create a blue call-to-action button with hover effect." The more detail you provide, the better Copilot's suggestions.
