      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This is a submission for the &lt;a href="https://dev.to/challenges/github"&gt;GitHub Copilot Challenge &lt;/a&gt;: Fresh Starts&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What I Built
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I built a Goal Setter App to help users organize their goals effectively. The app allows users to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add new goals with a specific deadline.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;View a list of all added goals&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Edit or delete created goals.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Persist data using local storage, so that goals 
remain even after refreshing the app.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Demo
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can check out the app and see it in action here:&lt;br&gt;
-&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://goal-setter-application-challenge.netlify.app/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Live demo of Goal Setter App&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F85kjbzi2qfaf2vp8p9sc.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F85kjbzi2qfaf2vp8p9sc.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="450"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Repo
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's the link to the project's Github repository:&lt;br&gt;
-&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://github.com/happyrw/goal-setter" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Goal Setter Github Repo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Copilot Experience
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Github copilot was instrumental throughout the development of this project. Here's how I used it:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Code Autocomplete: Copilot suggested code for React save me time and helping me learn best practices&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Prompt: I used prompt such u&lt;br&gt;
as "Create a function to add goal" to guide copilot to generate code snippet&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  GitHub Models
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I didn't use Github Models specifically for prototype, but I found that Copilot's generative ideas and implement solutions effectively. Its ability to provide boilerplate code and optimize logic was invaluable during the development process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Conclusion
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Build the Goal Setter App was a rewarding experience that highlighted the potential of Github Copilot as a coding assistant. As a productivity, and deliver a functional app.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This project gave me a fresh start in web development, combining creativity with practical problem-solving. The Goal Setter App has the potential to inspire others to stay organized and achieve their goals, one step at a time. &lt;/p&gt;
