By the end of this course, you’ll be able to confidently use GitHub Copilot to write, refactor, and review code more efficiently. You’ll learn how to interact with Copilot across multiple modes, including edit, chat, inline completion, and agent mode, while customizing its behavior to suit your development needs.
