Today, I tackled the creation of a new NextJS form for my application, opting for a sleek horizontal arrangement of components. Striving for a 100% width within the parent container proved trickier than expected. Copilot came to the rescue, aiding with the necessary math to resize the components accurately.

In my Next.js project, I encountered a challenge while working on a form that involved managing a list of values. Being a beginner, I found myself unsure about the logic required to extract the selected value from the list and update the state of the component.
Fortunately, as I delved into coding, GitHub Copilot came to my aid with a suggested code snippet:
if (field === "brand.id") {
let brand = brands.find(brand => brand.id === value);
setBoard({
...board,
brand: brand
});
return;
}

When working with NextJS and Typescript, I often find myself creating classes to represent data structures. In the course of doing so, I often need to create the class from a REST API response that is a JSON object.
To expedite this crucial task, I turned to GitHub Copilot for assistance. Witness the efficiency and precision of Copilot in action by watching the following video:

In the course of developing using NextJS, the integration of internationalization became a pivotal requirement on my checklist. The aim was to enable seamless translation of the application into multiple languages, leveraging the native i18n features provided by NextJS, as outlined in the official documentation.
To facilitate this, I organized a set of JSON files, each containing translations for the application in a specific language. For simplicity, I adopted a one-file-per-language approach, ensuring uniformity by maintaining identical keys across all files. The translation process involves replacing the values associated with each key.

PS: In this video I am translating the full file, but you can also translate a single key, or a set of keys, as you type them in the IDE, GitHub Copilot completion will propose you the translation.
In the process of constructing a product catalog within NextJS, I found myself in need of seamlessly interfacing with my backend using REST APIs, each adorned with a variety of URIs and parameters.
The typical structure of these URLs, such as /api/v1/products?category=shoes&color=red&size=10, prompted me to harness the power of GitHub Copilot to expedite the creation of functions with the appropriate parameters. Copilot not only assists in generating the function but also crafts the necessary fetch code for calling the API with precision.
