Pair Programming, Reimagined: My Experience with GitHub Copilot

GitHub CoPilot is a Powerful Pair Programming Tool. Now below are my views or perspectives about this.

1. “GitHub Copilot doesn’t just autocomplete your code — it reshapes how you think while writing it.”
2. “In a hackathon, speed and clarity win. Copilot gave us both — turning vague ideas into working functions in seconds.”
3. “It’s like having a senior developer in your IDE — one that never sleeps forgets syntax, or runs out of patience.”
4. “Copilot isn’t a replacement for good coding; it’s a multiplier of good coders.”
5. “The best part? Copilot didn’t think for me — it freed me to think deeper and faster.”
6. “With Copilot, I spent less time Googling and more time building. That alone changed my entire workflow.”
7. “GitHub Copilot isn't about writing code for you. It's about helping you write better code, faster.”
8. “In high-pressure coding events, fatigue is real. Copilot became the teammate who always had a suggestion, even at 2 AM.”
9. “Using Copilot during a hackathon felt like coding with X-ray vision — I could see potential solutions before even writing them.”
10. “The most valuable thing GitHub Copilot gave me wasn't speed — it was creative bandwidth.”
