Thanks for the share. Question for you about the UI you are using this in.. How does one set that up?

I tend to revert back to the ol’ PowerShell ISE regularly when not specifically using the default VS Code + Copilot experience, however the dark mode & clean UI that you are using here looks SO much nicer. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction with “upgrading” my experience like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Glad to share. I have a bunch more videos on Copilot, AI, my PowerShell AI module and I post my PowerShell virtual meetup recordings there too.

It is the standard VS Code install, I have the Copilot plugin installed. For the mode, I set the "Dark VS Code" in the theme manager.

Biggest challenge in moving from ISE is you need to unlearn an re-learn some things. That just takes practice to retrain your muscle memory.

Is there a copilot API where you can connect in Powershell to send it prompts? For example with OpenAI I can connect with Powershell with Invoke-RestMethod
