Coming soon to the GitHub Copilot desktop app: editable diffs!! ✏️ Agent got you most of the way there? Make those last tweaks directly in the diff, right where you’re reviewing the changes. Co-authored with @lichinlin!

recently worked with @ericwbailey on onboarding accessibility 〜 preferences during the onboarding might be the difference between someone being able to use GitHub Copilot app or not ⭐️

Working with @gimenete, we built a custom selection handler that keeps dragging scoped to a single file: fast, precise, and reliable. 30 sec demo ↓
