Codepilot Analytics

Codepilot Analytics is a pioneering VSCode extension designed to enhance the efficiency of software developers by leveraging the power of Generative AI tools within the Visual Studio Code environment. Specifically focusing on the integration of tools like GitHub Copilot, this extension aims to provide concrete, quantitative data on their impact on developer efficiency.

Features

• Efficiency Analysis: Measures and compares the efficiency of developers with and without the use of Generative AI, particularly GitHub Copilot, within their development workflow.
• Monitoring Tool Integration: Includes a built-in tool to monitor and record interactions within VSCode, focusing on how developers utilize GitHub Copilot.
• Quantitative Data Generation: Collects data on various efficiency metrics, such as time spent on tasks, function count, dependency count, lines of code, build warnings, and errors.
• Developer Interaction Patterns: Analyzes how developers interact with AI-assisted suggestions and the impact on their coding practices.

Getting Started

1. Install the Extension: Search for 'Codepilot Analytics' in the VSCode Extensions view and click install.
2. Configure: Ensure you have a linter installed, as Codepilot Analytics relies on linting tools to collect some metrics.
3. Usage: Simply begin coding in your project. Codepilot Analytics runs in the background, gathering data on your interaction with GitHub Copilot and other efficiency metrics.

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code (latest version recommended).
• GitHub Copilot installed and configured in your VSCode environment.
• A linter (e.g., ESLint for JavaScript) installed for your project's language.

Extension Settings

This extension does not require additional settings. It automatically starts collecting data when your coding session begins in VSCode.
