It's funny that GitHub ships their own text editor, Atom, but the second example (under the "More than Autocomplete" header) on the Copilot website is clearly using VSCode.

now they just need to build this into vim.

  Or more realistically, a language server which would then be compatible with many editors including (Neo)Vim.

  Presumably, this will be accessible through a REST API or something like that at some point, so that it can eventually be integrated into all editors.

    yep, the only thing I'm not quite sure about is how often it needs to call home. Presumably very often.. which runs counter to minimalism.

      Check out the "Telemetry" link when you scroll down on the project page.

I don't know if they've officially said anything on this, but since the MS acquisition it feels like Atom is on life support. Github Codespaces is built on VSCode, and there's a lot of effort from Github going into their VSCode extension for things like PR review.
