Fuel Your Fixes: Visual Studio Debugging, Powered by Copilot
summary
Live demos show GitHub Copilot inside Visual Studio performing semantic searches over a solution with the solution context element to find the basket code and apply a one-line hot‑reload fix that removes zero‑quantity items, fixes a discount typo, and corrects currency formatting. The debugger context element captures call stacks and locals for targeted analysis; variable analysis explains a Win32 CreateProcess error and applies a null‑terminator fix (post‑1712), output‑log parsing finds a missing Release, and LINQ hover plus image input help debug UI and queries.
