About

GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered development assistant designed to accelerate software workflows from the editor to the enterprise. It works directly inside popular IDEs, terminals, and GitHub itself to help developers write, understand, and improve code faster. Copilot supports multiple leading large language models, allowing users to optimize for speed, accuracy, or cost. Developers can use Copilot to complete code, explain concepts, propose edits, and validate files in real time. It also enables agent-based workflows where Copilot can autonomously handle issues, write code, and create pull requests. With seamless integration across tools, Copilot keeps developers focused without breaking their flow. GitHub Copilot is built to scale from individual developers to large organizations with enterprise-grade controls.

About

IntelliSense is a general term for various code editing features including: code completion, parameter info, quick info, and member lists. IntelliSense features are sometimes called by other names such as "code completion", "content assist", and "code hinting." Visual Studio Code IntelliSense is provided for JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, HTML, CSS, SCSS, and Less out of the box. VS Code supports word based completions for any programming language but can also be configured to have richer IntelliSense by installing a language extension. VS Code IntelliSense features are powered by a language service. A language service provides intelligent code completions based on language semantics and an analysis of your source code. If a language service knows possible completions, the IntelliSense suggestions will pop up as you type. If you continue typing characters, the list of members (variables, methods, etc.) is filtered to only include members containing your typed characters.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - It gives accurate suggestions and auto-completion almost all the time. - It works with almost all the new and old libraries and frameworks. - it gives not only obvious suggestions for auto-completion but also relevant and customized suggestions according to the project. - It is quite straightforward to use just install the extension on the code editor and it starts working like a charm.
  • I am afraid there is nothing positive to say unfortunately. It's not even close to being as good as ChatGPT.
  • - Easy to use, uses context of File currently in use and others in the project. - sometimes need some little things added, but generally can create fully working functions by just a name.
  • Guesses what code you want to generate from context. Good choices as it suggests code from what you have written. Good for tedious coding. Works seamlessly in VS Code.
  • GitHub Copilot works pretty well, and works better than I thought it would when I first decided to try it. It's snappy, works with a variety of IDEs, and is pretty accurate and efficient.

Cons

  • - One thing I noticed is if I am creating a project from scratch it does not give accurate auto-completion right from the start instead it takes time to analyze the project and then provides relevant suggestions. - Pricing can be a bit better.
  • - Doesn't reply 80% of the times - In the 20% of times it does reply it's mostly unusable code
  • - So far haven't found any. - Maybe creates a risk of relying on it to much for some people.
  • Expensive. Unable to trigger on demand. More settings/customizations would be nice.
  • Haven't used it long enough to find any red flags yet, but I will update my review if I come across any cons.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's very helpful for starters or some other Visual Studio Code users and it's reliable plus it's free of charge.

Cons

  • It can result in being very slow with complex programming languages such as C languages but it's good for Python.
