| GitHub Copilot instructions files are markdown documents that provide essential context to guide Copilot’s behavior within a specific codebase. These files help tailor AI-generated suggestions to match your team’s coding standards, architectural patterns, naming conventions, testing strategies, and deployment practices. There are two types of instructions files: global instructions, which apply to the entire repository and are stored in `copilot-instructions.md`, and scoped instructions, which apply only to specific files or folders and are placed in `.github/instructions/*instructions.md`. | ||

| By supplying Copilot with detailed project context, instructions files significantly improve the relevance and accuracy of its code suggestions. For example, if your project uses Blazor and ASP.NET Core, Copilot can generate components that follow your preferred structure, use modern Python features, and adhere to your naming conventions. This leads to more consistent code and reduces the need for manual corrections or lengthy code reviews. Instructions files also enhance Copilot’s ability to generate meaningful tests and documentation. With the right context, Copilot can suggest unit tests using unittest or pytest, integration tests with tools like requests or httpx, and even add docstrings or OpenAPI annotations to your FastAPI or Flask endpoints. When refactoring or adding new features, Copilot respects your dependency injection setup, configuration patterns, and error-handling strategies, making it a smarter and more reliable assistant. |

The sentence mentions 'Blazor and ASP.NET Core' in a Python tutorial, but then talks about 'modern Python features'. This is inconsistent - it should reference Python frameworks like FastAPI, Django, or Flask instead of .NET technologies.

The comment about 'JavaScript-style comment ()' is unclear. It should specify what JavaScript-style comment syntax was replaced, such as '// comments' or '/* comments */'.

| 4. Now we want to use the inline feature of Copilot. Using the inline feature we can focus on the code in front of us and make progressive changes as needed in our code base. Next, we will create a new C# class by creating a new file under the `Backend` folder: `SampleApp\BackEnd\Customer.cs`. | ||

The numbering is inconsistent. This should be '4.' to continue the sequence from the previous numbered steps, not '1.'
