FAQPage Schema
How do I set up CoDev in a .NET CLI platform repository?▼

To set up CoDev in a .NET CLI repository, run 'codev init --strategy extend'. This bootstraps the framework by adding it as a git submodule and initializing the environment for your project.

What is the extend strategy for GitHub Copilot customization?▼

The extend strategy initializes the CoDev environment by adding a git submodule and creating a project-specific 'codev-overrides/' directory, allowing you to author custom skills for GitHub Copilot.

Do I need Python and git to initialize CoDev?▼

Yes, you need both git and Python installed to execute the CoDev setup. Git manages the submodule addition, while Python drives the initialization and validation scripts.

How does CoDev handle submodule initialization for GitHub Copilot?▼

CoDev automates submodule initialization by adding the CoDev framework as a git submodule directly into your .NET CLI repository, ensuring the customization environment is tracked and ready for validation.

Can I create project-specific overrides for GitHub Copilot in .NET?▼

Yes, the setup creates a project-specific 'codev-overrides/' directory during initialization. This allows you to author custom skills and tailor the GitHub Copilot framework to your .NET project.

What are the limitations of automating CoDev setup with submodules?▼

The setup is specifically tailored for .NET CLI platform repositories and requires both git and Python. It focuses on environment initialization and override setup, meaning non-.NET projects may not be compatible.
