In this edition of Community Spotlight, we're highlighting some outstanding contributions from the Microsoft and GitHub communities. This time, we’re featuring https://www.linkedin.com/in/dscottraynsford/, Partner Technology Strategist at Microsoft New Zealand.
https://github.com/features/copilot has revolutionised the way we interact with code, introducing a multi-modal experience that spans voice, chat, and multiple programming languages. But it’s not just about answering questions. With the proper context and well-defined constraints, Copilot becomes a creative and strategic partner, helping developers shape outcomes more intentionally.
At the forefront of this innovation, Daniel has been exploring powerful new use cases for Copilot, including:
- Custom Chat Modes
- MCP integration with GitHub Copilot
- A growing Asset Library of personas and structured prompts
Daniel’s latest videos highlight these capabilities in action:
