I cannot show it because the code belongs to my employer.

Ah yes of course. But no one asked for the code really. Just show us the app. Or is it some kinda super-duper secret military stuff you are not even supposed to discuss, let alone show.

It is neither of these. It's an application that processes data and is not accessible outside of the companies network. Not everything is an app.

I described my workflow that has been a game changer for me, hoping it might be useful to another person because I have struggled to use LLMs for more than a Google replacement.

As an example, one task of the feature was to add metrics for observability when the new action was executed. Another when it failed.

My prompt: Create a new metric "foo.bar" in MyMetrics when MyService.action was successful and "foo.bar.failed" when it failed.

I review the plan and let it implement it.

As you can see it's a small task and after it is done I review the changes and commit them. Rinse and repeat.

I think the biggest issue is that people try to one shot big features or applications. But it is much more efficient to me to treat Copilot as a smart pair programming partner. There you also think about and implement one task after the other.
