GitHub Copilot has evolved into a full AI teammate across the entire software development lifecycle. In this session, we explore the new agentic SDLC through live demos of Copilot in VS Code, GitHub.com, terminals, JetBrains, and more. We’ll unpack Agent Mode, Plan Agent, Coding Agent, MCP servers, custom skills, and AGENTS.md - and show how AI now supports planning, coding, testing, reviewing, modernizing, and deploying.
We’ll also cover cloud‑backed background development, app modernization for Java/.NET, and how to embed agents inside your own apps with the Copilot SDK.
This is your end‑to‑end guide to AI‑native engineering and hybrid dev teams.
