AI is changing how developers write code — and GitHub Copilot is leading the way.
As part of GitHub Copilot Dev Days, we’re bringing an exclusive College Series to campuses across Mangaluru and nearby regions. This hands-on workshop tour is designed to help students and early-career developers learn how to code faster, smarter, and more confidently with AI-powered development tools.
This college series leads into the main GitHub Copilot Dev Days community event on 25th April, hosted by HackersMang:
