Advanced Techniques for Documenting Code with GitHub Copilot
In this episode of Prompt Driven Development, Maxim Salnikov, AI Dev Tools Solution Engineer at Microsoft, demonstrates how to document an app using GitHub Copilot, generating a polished README, API docs, and inline code comments with advanced prompting techniques. He also demos Copilot’s BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) feature, allowing teams to connect their own AI model API keys for greater flexibility. Additionally, Maxim shows how to use prompt files in VS Code - reusable Markdown-based prompts that standardize workflows like code generation, reviews, and scaffolding.
