I'm excited to share some great news with you all. We've just launched the public preview of GitHub Copilot for Azure - a fantastic new tool that seamlessly integrates with GitHub Copilot Chat in VS Code. Think of it as your personal assistant for navigating the Azure cloud.
See announcement post from Chris Harris!
Why GitHub Copilot for Azure?
Instead of constantly switching between your IDE and the Azure portal to manage infrastructure or search for commands and arguments, you can now focus on what you do best – writing code. Whether you're provisioning services or deploying apps, just ask @azure in GitHub Copilot Chat and handle it all right inside your editor.
Key Features
Learning about Azure: GitHub Copilot for Azure makes learning about Azure services a breeze. It pulls in relevant, up-to-date documentation like answers on Azure OpenAI models, Azure AI Search, or even how pricing works for services like Azure SQL, all within your coding environment. This is super handy for developers just starting with Azure, helping them grasp complex concepts faster, while also saving time for experienced developers who need quick reminders or details on the latest services and features.
Deploying Apps: GitHub Copilot for Azure takes the hassle out of deploying your apps by guiding you through tasks like setting up resources or automating deployments. Whether you're building a RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) app with Python, creating a CI/CD pipeline, or using the Azure Developer CLI (azd) to deploy your project, @azure can suggest app templates, the right commands, and configurations straight from your code editor. No need to search for sample applications, look up CLI commands, or YAML syntax - @azure fills in the blanks for you.
Troubleshooting: Sometimes things go wrong. When they do, GitHub Copilot for Azure simplifies diagnosing and troubleshooting by providing quick insights into your application's performance and resource issues.
Get Started Now!
You can get started right now by installing GitHub Copilot for Azure from the VS Code Marketplace. It's designed to make your life easier and your workflow smoother.
