How I keep Copilot from messing up my .NET code
|
Hey friend, I just released a new video and I think you will enjoy this one. In the video, I ask GitHub Copilot to build a real mortgage app in Blazor. The app works. But the code is messy. All the business logic ends up in the UI. Fast results. Bad structure. Then I clean it up properly. Same behavior. Same output. Much better code using services, interfaces, and dependency injection. It shows why Copilot is powerful, but dangerous without rules.
Enjoy the breakdown and let me know what you think in the comments. Take care, Patrick P.S.

Hey friend, I just released a new video showing a better way to use GitHub Copilot in real .NET projects. Watch it here 👇 If you ever felt like Copilot starts strong but then your code slowly turns into chaos, you’re not alone. It happens to most developers when they start using AI without giving it the right guidance. In the video, I show you one simple file you can add to your project that keeps your code clean, structured, and consistent. No guessing. No random patterns. Just a clear...
Hey friend, I just published a new video that walks you through how to upgrade to .NET 10. Watch it here 👇 If you're already trying the update, you may have seen this: the app builds no errors but… Blazor doesn't load That happened in my project too. And the fix is small, but easy to miss. In the video, I show: how to update the target frameworks how to update NuGet packages what changed for Blazor and how to fix the missing static assets issue No hype. Just a clear step-by-step walkthrough....
