Copilot in Your Java Tooling: From CLI to SDK to Plugins
summary
Live demos show GitHub Copilot CLI generating a Java 25 Spring Boot to‑do app with H2/JPA/Thymeleaf and pushing a repo, creates a Spring Boot to‑do app in 5–10 minutes, then opening PRs that include UI screenshots and automated code reviews; agentic workflows run in GitHub Actions to auto‑label effort (small/medium/large) and add comments; the Copilot Community SDK for Java calls the CLI programmatically, Copilot SDK for Java integrates via CLI, and a JMeter plugin prototype is built but intermittently fails in the demo due to CLI/protocol version mismatches.
