Coding with AI: Using GitHub Copilot Agent Mode to Enhance a Blazor Application

Learn how GitHub Copilot Agent Mode can help improve and extend a real Blazor application using AI-assisted development. Instead of using Copilot only for code snippets, Agent Mode can analyze an entire project and propose larger changes across multiple files. In this video we use Copilot Agent Mode to enhance an open source Blazor project step by step. The demo walks through three different enhancement scenarios: • Improving the layout of several data entry forms using Bootstrap cards and better spacing • Adding a new Future Weather component using the OpenWeather API and following the design patterns already present in the application • Introducing unit testing to the project using xUnit and bUnit for Blazor component testing Throughout the video we look at how Copilot plans changes, modifies multiple files, and how well it understands an existing Blazor application structure.
