I'm using copilot now for some time and yeah it's more a toy than real help right now.
The only time it really helped when I needed to create a named list of char codes.
When it comes to more complex code than checking the code of copilot takes the same time as writing it. 90% of the time I needed to correct copilot.
For me, tools like linters are way more helpful then.
If I could only use ESLint or copilot, I would go 100% of the time with ESLint.
- harlekein 5y agoI think another risk with getting Copilot to start out, is that it might nudge you into a direction you wouldn't have gone into otherwise. Whether that is better or not, I suppose, it depends.
- lampe3 5y agoI'm working on a HTML Tokenizer in Deno/Typescript. Copilot only helps with boilerplate code which could be handled by good intellisense. When it tries to generate a function from the function name it fails so hard that it is more in your way then helpful.
