"For a lot of people"? I'm not saying your experience is invalid, I'm just curious how big the overlap of Codepilot users and potential Helix users is. I don't know anyone personally who likes Codepilot, and only a few who have used it at all. To me it still seems to be a niche (and probably copyright law violating) product.
- 59nadir 3y agoProbably a lot of people, yeah. More than half of the developers I know use Copilot. The vast majority of those that do use it are (Neo)vim users, which should have plenty of overlap with Helix. Also, I don't know what there is to like about Copilot. It fills in code based on what's around it more or less matching intent. It's basically a tool to fill in pieces that someone was going to write anyway, as far as I'm concerned.
