"An Essential Co-Pilot for Shifting Your Brain from Typing to Thinking"

4.5/5

What do you like best about GitHub Copilot?

What I like best is how much it speeds up the boring, repetitive parts of coding.

Writing things like boilerplate code, standard API fetch blocks, or unit tests used to take up a lot of my time. Now, if I write a descriptive function name or a clear comment, Copilot usually drops in exactly what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub Copilot?

The biggest issue for me is when it confidently writes code that looks perfect but is actually completely broken—what people call "hallucinations." If you aren't paying close attention, it's easy to accept a suggestion that uses a function or a library method that doesn't even exist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GitHub Copilot solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem Copilot solves is developer fatigue and context switching.

Before using it, if I forgot the exact syntax for a specific library or needed to write a regex pattern, I’d have to leave my code editor, search the web, and sift through documentation or forums. That constant back-and-forth breaks your focus. Copilot keeps me in the zone by bringing those quick syntax answers directly into my IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
