Here’s how to do it: 

‍

  1. Open the extension view in VS code by clicking the gear icon.
  2. Select 'Extensions' from the menu.
  3. Search for 'GitHub Copilot' in the search bar at the top of the Extensions marketplace.
  4. Click 'Install' for the official GitHub Copilot extension. The GitHub Copilot Chat extension will be installed automatically alongside it.
  5. Choose and select 'Allow' to continue.

📌 Why this matters

Installing GitHub Copilot in VS Code transforms your coding experience by providing AI-powered code suggestions and completions as you type. You'll write code faster and encounter fewer syntax errors, but the real advantage goes beyond speed.

The AI learns from billions of lines of code, exposing you to different programming patterns and approaches you might not have considered. This accelerates your learning curve and helps you discover more efficient solutions, making you a better developer even when you're not using the assistant.
