Microsoft Copilot to macOS: What It Means for Developers

With the boom of Copilot on Windows, Microsoft decided to go further. This time, they decided to continue their AI-driven development and released a native Copilot app on macOS. This way, they expanded its accessibility beyond Windows. Now, not only Windows users but also Mac users can also feel all the features of Copilot. A web-based AI assistant that creates texts and images and interacts with documents – it’s all about the Copilot app. Such a development shows that Microsoft is on its way to expanding its AI integration in development workflows. Using Copilot, experienced developers and those who just started can feel all the possibilities it offers.

Key Features of Copilot for macOS

The macOS version of Copilot offers not only a great and seamless experience but also some features for better productivity. Let’s take a closer look at them:

• Shortcut Integration: To activate Copilot, users need to press Command + Space, mirroring the Alt + Space functionality on Windows.
