How to start this exercise

[!IMPORTANT] This exercise assumes basic knowledge of GitHub Copilot. If you are unfamiliar, we recommend the Getting Started with Copilot exercise.

Simply copy the exercise to your account, then give your favorite Octocat (Mona) about 20 seconds to prepare the first lesson, then refresh the page.

Having trouble? 🤷

When copying the exercise, we recommend the following settings:

For owner, choose your personal account or an organization to host the repository.
We recommend creating a public repository, since private repositories will use Actions minutes.

If the exercise isn't ready in 20 seconds, please check the Actions tab.

Check to see if a job is running. Sometimes it simply takes a bit longer.
If the page shows a failed job, please submit an issue. Nice, you found a bug! 🐛
