Summary

Over three days this seminar goes deep into GitHub Copilot, starting with an overview of what it does and how it fits into a development environment. You learn how to put Copilot to work in the development process and how to adjust it to your own preferences. You then discuss the methods that work and the difficulties that come up, and look at data protection and security. Finally you work through case studies and where AI-assisted coding is heading, so that you leave with a full picture of what the technology offers and what it demands.
