GitHub Copilot workshops

Guided First Steps workshops and real-world development workshops for GitHub Copilot in VS Code, the terminal, the desktop app, and the cloud.

Choose a workshop based on what you want to learn and how deeply you want to explore it. First steps offers a guided introduction to GitHub Copilot, while Real-world development uses a complete application and team backlog to practice production-oriented workflows.

First steps

Start with a focused, guided experience that introduces the key capabilities of a GitHub Copilot product without requiring an existing codebase.

GitHub Copilot app tour

Build a Space Quiz from an empty folder, publish it to GitHub, implement an issue, complete a Copilot review, schedule an automation, and explore a Canvas workflow.

GitHub Copilot CLI first steps

Build the same Space Quiz from your terminal, review diffs, run parallel sessions in worktrees, plan before editing, and create, merge, and delegate pull requests without leaving the shell.

Visual Studio Code first steps

Build the Space Quiz in VS Code, test it in the integrated browser, publish with Source Control, work with issues and pull requests through GitHub tools, and hand off to a cloud session.

Real-world development

Practice GitHub Copilot in a realistic software development lifecycle using the Tailspin Toys application and backlog. Choose the environment where you want to work, then plan, build, test, review, and deliver meaningful changes.

Browse the real-world development workshops

Choose from GitHub Copilot CLI, the GitHub Copilot app, the GitHub Copilot cloud agent, or Visual Studio Code.
