Adding New Framework Features with Copilot Agent | Bondar Academy

Lesson Summary

In this lesson, we explore how to leverage AI and Copilot to enhance existing frameworks by adding or updating features efficiently. Key Concepts The focus is on a utils file named schema validator.ts , which validates and generates schemas. Currently, manual edits are required for schema formats, such as adding date and time formats, which can be inconvenient. The goal is to automate the addition of format properties based on the API response. Implementation Steps Identify the need for additional logic in the schema generation process. Use Copilot to assist in writing the necessary code by providing context and specific instructions. Formulate a prompt for Copilot to check for properties like created_at and updated_at and to add a format property if they exist. Review the code generated by Copilot, ensuring it meets the requirements. Best Practices Do not blindly accept AI-generated code; always review and understand it. Use AI not just for speeding up development, but also for enhancing your coding skills. Invest time in understanding the generated code to improve your own knowledge and capabilities. By following these practices, developers can efficiently enhance their frameworks while also growing their skills.
