How do I make Copilot suggest more idiomatic TypeScript patterns?
Asked on Oct 12, 2025
Answer
To make GitHub Copilot suggest more idiomatic TypeScript patterns, you can adjust your settings to prioritize TypeScript-specific suggestions and ensure your codebase is well-structured with clear TypeScript conventions. This helps Copilot learn from your patterns and provide better suggestions.
- Open your IDE with GitHub Copilot installed.
- Navigate to Copilot Settings → Suggestions.
- Enable TypeScript language support and adjust the settings to prioritize TypeScript idioms.
Additional Comment:
- Ensure your TypeScript code is well-documented and follows best practices, as Copilot learns from the existing codebase.
- Regularly update your IDE and Copilot plugin to benefit from the latest improvements in suggestion algorithms.
- Consider using TypeScript linters and formatters to maintain consistent code style, which can influence Copilot's suggestions.
