Moving Fast Without Breaking Things Using GitHub Code Quality
·OnlineOnlineAI tools like GitHub Copilot are accelerating development—but speed alone doesn’t guarantee sustainable code. Without clear signals and prioritization, teams risk accumulating technical debt faster than they can understand it. This talk introduces GitHub Code Quality, a developer-first approach to maintaining reliability and maintainability in AI-assisted codebases.
You’ll learn how Code Quality highlights the issues that matter most, avoids noisy backlogs, and enables automated fixes—helping teams ship faster while staying in control of long-term code health.
