This is indeed a really useful feature request and I also believe this would improve the experience by a lot!
We currently do not have the bandwidth to implement something like this, but I'll leave this issue open, if anyone is interesting in contributing, let me know and we can chat about how.
Thank you for the issue @WallPasq
Hi,
I would like to propose an enhancement to the Briefer application by integrating GitHub Copilot's autocomplete and autosuggestion features.
Background
While using Briefer, I've found that the chat functionality, especially when powered by GPT-4 works exceptionally well—often better than Copilot's chat, at least based on my experience. The conversational responses are insightful and greatly assist in coding tasks.
However, I miss the powerful autocomplete and autosuggestions that GitHub Copilot offers. These features are extremely helpful when working under tight deadlines, as they speed up the coding process and reduce the amount of manual typing required.
For example, when I'm using GitHub Copilot, when I type:
Copilot automatically suggests:
This intelligent suggestion saves time and helps ensure that code follows best practices.
Proposal
I understand that integrating such features is a challenging task, but I believe that incorporating GitHub Copilot's autocomplete and autosuggestions into Briefer would significantly enhance the user experience. Having both the advanced chat capabilities of GPT-4 (or preferably the latest version) and the real-time code suggestions of Copilot in one tool would be incredibly beneficial.
Benefits
Increased Productivity: Autocomplete and autosuggestions speed up coding by reducing manual typing. Improved Code Quality: Intelligent suggestions can help developers write better code by following best practices. Enhanced User Experience: Combining chat assistance with real-time code suggestions provides a more comprehensive development environment.
Considerations
Technical Feasibility: I acknowledge that this feature might be complex to implement and would require careful integration. Version Compatibility: Utilizing the latest versions of GPT and Copilot would ensure the best possible performance.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. Please let me know if there's any way I can assist in making this feature a reality.
Best regards,
Wallacy Nerio
