## What it is
A Vim/Neovim plugin that integrates GitHub Copilot, an AI pair programmer that generates code suggestions from natural language prompts. Suggestions appear inline and are accepted with the tab key, requiring a Copilot subscription and Node.js.

## Use cases
- get AI code completions in Vim or Neovim
- turn comments into code suggestions while editing
- use GitHub Copilot without leaving the terminal
- inline AI pair programming in Neovim
- accept code suggestions with the tab key in Vim

## When to choose
- you edit code in Vim or Neovim and want Copilot suggestions inline
- you prefer a lightweight plugin over VS Code or a full IDE
- you already have a GitHub Copilot subscription and Node.js installed

## When to avoid
- you don't have a GitHub Copilot subscription
- you use an editor other than Vim or Neovim
- you need offline code completion without a cloud service
