Nice explanation Sinem. Microsoft is lucky to have you. Tesekkurler

Could you add an instructions field to copilot like what ChatGPT templates have? I want to customize it's behavior and give a small "coding guide" to it. Or maybe it could also have editable copilot templates.

std::sqrt😂 yup, def needed that wrapper function!

[qasimsh]

Can we use this feature for other programing languages or it is just for c++?

[uFii-V]

Does it increase productivity when making the copilot explain a certain error?

Thanks. So far, copilot is a bit weak with templates beyond the trivial, and in general at compilation time programming and optimizations in general, but I see a good future for it there, less for programmers 😅

Please this is my request .

I reinstalled Vs code also that mingw and checked my extension but still ....
