AI isn’t replacing developers—but it’s definitely changing how I work. Here’s how I use AI (especially GitHub Copilot) to save time on .NET projects, from code reviews to boilerplate generation.
Where AI Helps Most
- Boilerplate Code: Let Copilot write the repetitive stuff—controllers, DTOs, test scaffolding.
- Code Reviews: Use AI to spot obvious bugs, style issues, and missing edge cases before PRs go to humans.
- Prompt Engineering: I keep a library of prompts for Copilot and ChatGPT to generate regex, LINQ queries, and more.
- Documentation: Summarize code or generate README drafts automatically.
Tips for .NET Developers
- Always review AI-generated code—don’t trust, verify.
- Use AI for speed, but keep your standards high.
- Share prompt examples with your team to level up everyone’s workflow.
