Overall Satisfaction with GitHub Copilot

The department gathers all business requirements that in order to achieve them and make them real, we need to develop code. Here is where GitHub Copilot plays its role. We have Visual Studio Code and Eclipse installed in the developers local environments and we have installed the extension that helps us in developing and reviewing the code.

Pros

  • Review code
  • Answers quite good the questions I ask about the workspace configuration
  • Specialized agent for coding Java, Groovy

Cons

  • Sometimes generates nonsensical code, "hallucination," which can require additional review and correction
  • Sometimes can contain security vulnerabilities
  • It is a paid service
  • Time to Market
  • Return on Investment
  • Handover (documentation generation = easier to understand)
Overall speaking, it is very easy to start using it by downloading the extension and subscribing to it, then the configuration and the actual use. A lot of documentation on the internet, tutorials, videos... to take advantage of all of the features provided by GitHub Copilot which thanks to the IDE are very easy to use.
In terms of AI and developing tasks, GitHub Copilot is the only tool I have used so far. Copilot Work, Copilot Web, Copilot Teams, Copilot Excel, Copilot Word, Copilot Outlook, Copilot Power Point are other agents of Copilot that I use daily, but are all complementary of GitHub Copilot and play different roles.

One of my favorite features is for documenting and generating comments. Great quality of the comments making your code more maintainable and easy to share among developers. Another scenario where it helps a lot is for generating unit testing, that tedious task where developers often feel more lazy, with GitHub Copilot it is much quicker.
