Join Dan Vega and DaShaun Carter for an insightful session with Bruno Borges, Principal Product Manager at Microsoft, as we dive into the next generation of AI-assisted development. In this episode, we explore the GitHub Copilot CLI and the new Copilot Java SDK, uncovering how these tools are transforming the terminal into a powerful environment for Spring developers. Learn how to go beyond simple autocomplete, using agentic workflows to automate complex tasks like upgrading Spring Boot versions, refactoring legacy code, and streamlining Azure deployments. We’ll also discuss how the Copilot Java SDK allows developers to embed AI capabilities directly into their own JVM-based tooling and CI/CD pipelines.
