GitHub Copilot app for Beginners: Getting started

The GitHub Copilot app is a workspace-based AI coding tool that goes beyond a simple chat window. It organizes work around projects, allowing multiple concurrent agent sessions for different tasks. Key features include Quick Chat for parallel conversations, canvas for visual previewing and interactive UI refinement using the /create-canvas command and Pick & Polish mode, and Agent Merge for automating pull request monitoring, addressing review feedback, resolving CI failures, and handling merge conflicts.
