It suggests lines of code, or entire functions, based on the OpenAI engine. This tool uses our code to, in turn, suggest code right back to us. It speeds up the development process greatly and helps to reduce mistakes. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

I just write a comment describing the service I want to use and the functionality/result desired and boom copilot autocompletes it for me along with the relevant service endpoint! **@crypt0** · 1 upvotes > This is awesome! I am using in in my corporate project and it is wonderful! It is so so helpful ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#devtools](https://daily.dev/tags/devtools), [#general-programming](https://daily.dev/tags/general-programming), [#github](https://daily.dev/tags/github) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/github-copilot-blew-my-mind-on-a-code-along-exercise-m8odrhwv9)
