## Source excerpt

We all love GitHub Copilot as a powerful AI-powered coding assistant that enhances productivity. However, until now, it has been officially available only for VS Code and a few other editors. But here's some good news for Eclipse users! We have tried the Copilot4Eclipse plugin with the Espressif-IDE LSP C/C++ Editor, and it works amazingly well, helping to write code faster and fix bugs.
