Experiment with GitHub Copilot Workspace

In this Weekly Dev Chat (March 25/2025) we will experiment with GitHub Copliot Workspace. It's a feature that lets you create PRs using GitHub Copilot that will create new files, edit eixisting files, and the like. I'll share my screen and we can do some ~~pair programming~~ pair telling the AI what do.

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others.

Supply chains

Today we're discussing software development supply chains. For example, are your dependencies completely open source, or do you buy commercial libraries? Do you rely on tools like Balsamiq, or Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator? Are you deploying your software in the cloud or on-site? Do you sell your work in any of the app stores?

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others. Learn how to join the chat, and other useful information, here.

Editors, IDEs, etc.

I'm curious about how other people get their work done, so in today's #meetup-weekly-dev-chat we'll be talking about editors, IDEs, and plugins.

What's your setup? Your favourite plugin? On a fresh machine what's the first thing you install? Does your company allow you to choose your editing tools? Do you use Copilot or some other AI assist? Coding standards? Linting? What do you love, what do you hate?

Everyone and anyone is welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others. Zoom link will be posted shortly before 12pm MDT.
