βπ VIBE CODING : Code with AI - Free GitHub Copilot Workshop π
βJoin our FREE online workshop: Vibe Code with VS Code & AI Copilot, hosted by Mounssif Bouhlaoui in collaboration with ALX Morocco.
βBut this isn't just another workshop! It's an opportunity to be part of the GitHub Copilot for Software Development in Africa Research Project.
βπ€ What's Behind This Event?
βThis initiative is a collaborative effort led by Adeyinka J. Oresanya and a research team from the University of Nebraska & CHAOSS-Africa. The core goal is to explore and understand the positive impact of Generative AI (GAI) tools, specifically GitHub Copilot, on the lives and work of African developers. We're looking at how it can enhance skills, improve employment prospects, foster entrepreneurial activities, and boost open-source contributions across the continent.
βThe project is supported by GitHub and is being conducted under university-approved Institutional Review Board (IRB) guidelines, ensuring the rights and well-being of all participants are protected.
ββ¨ The Amazing Offer: FREE GitHub Copilot Pro (2 Years - $200 USD Value!) β¨
βAs a thank you for participating in this important study, the first 30 eligible attendees (who do not have GitHub Copilot Pro or GitHub Pro and complete the pre-workshop survey, and from north Africa) will receive FREE GitHub Copilot Pro access for 2 YEARS!
βπ€ What's Involved in the Research? Is it Time-Consuming?
βNot at all! Your contribution is valuable and designed to be straightforward:
βAttend this insightful workshop to learn how to leverage GitHub Copilot.
βComplete TWO short surveys:
βA pre-workshop survey (included in the registration form : https://forms.gle/2ZK84Wkh6ACjM1eN9).
βA second brief survey a few months after the workshop to share your experiences with Copilot.
β(Optional): Join a dedicated Slack community to share ongoing experiences and insights with fellow participants and the research team.
βThat's it! No lengthy commitments. Your feedback will directly contribute to understanding how AI-powered tools can best support Africa's vibrant developer community.
βYou'll gain:
βPractical skills to supercharge your development with GitHub Copilot.
βA FREE 2-year premium tool (worth $200 USD!).
