What I Built

I have built a crowd‑funding platform, currently in development but submitted as a concept with mock data and no backend transaction functionality at present.
I find it extremely exciting to build and develop concepts that others might find useful.
I am fond of using the software that I make; it helps me feel more connected to what I am doing.

My Experience with GitHub Copilot CLI

I start with a concept.txt or concept.md file, detailing my vision, direction, and specific details for frameworks and languages (tech stack). I also add any research gathered. Once the Copilot AI has ingested my idea, I ask for options and advice, such as “what would you do if …?” or “what do you think about that?”.

I then choose an option, start building, and edit and test until fully satisfied. You can read more in the concept.md file found in the GitHub repo provided.

Even just filling out this submission form has taught me a lot—this is my very first entry to any competition, so it’s a big moment for me!
