Beat Procrastination and Start Building with Copilot in Visual Studio

Got projects you’ve been putting off for months—or even years? A new post from the Visual Studio team explores how AI-powered tools like Copilot can help developers break through procrastination and get back into building mode. Now’s the perfect time to get moving—with Copilot in Visual Studio by your side.

Here are three smart ways to jump-start your next project:

  • Build a static website—fast

    Turn documents (like books or guides) into websites. Export your .docx to .txt, open an empty folder in Visual Studio, prompt Copilot with your desired layout and style, and watch it generate a site in seconds.

  • Extend a TOON language service

    Use Copilot to make your TOON language service fault-tolerant, improve parsing, and auto-generate unit tests based on specifications. Just click the Cloud Agent, describe your goal, and let Visual Studio plan the rest.

  • Create custom color themes

    Provide screenshots and ask Copilot to extract color tokens for the shell, environment, and syntax highlighting—then map them directly to the VS XML theme file.
