    Master the core principles of prompt engineering with GitHub Copilot

    The Importance of Simplicity

    Break Your solution up into simple steps and let's perform them one at a time when you work in simple steps there's less code that you have to check for accuracy and you can just move that much faster.

    The 3S Principle

    the best prompt is the one that you don't have to write now there are times when you're going to need more complex answers and there's just no way around that this is especially true if you're not 100% sure how to do something and you need some guidance from co-pilot

    The Advantage of Specificity

    if I ask an open-ended question about how to integrate Swagger here I get an open-ended answer in fact co-pilot might not even know what language I want to work in why doesn't co-pilot know about my project co-pilot tries to intelligently pull in context for you

    The Power of Conciseness

    you don't need to phrase questions as if you were talking to a human you don't need proper grammar you don't even need complete sentences you don't have to spell things correctly you can safely admit almost all of that and get the same answer faster type less because typos don't matter
