Fast Focus: Using Copilot to Build Migration Tools
dotnet explains how to use GitHub Copilot to build migration tooling that makes moving between package versions (or to different libraries) more deterministic and reliable.
Overview
The video walks through an approach for using Copilot as a helper when creating migration tools, with the goal of turning a frustrating, manual migration process into something more repeatable.
Key themes covered:
- Using GitHub Copilot to accelerate building a migration tool foundation.
- Using different libraries to drive and implement migrations.
- Techniques for combining Copilot-assisted development with .NET to produce a more deterministic, reliable migration experience.
