Hey Windows Terminal fans! We've been playing around with Terminal Chat in the Canary builds and we'd love your feedback 😊

Have you tried Terminal Chat? Do you find having GitHub Copilot in a pane in Terminal useful? Are there other features you want to see here? Let us know!

Of the new PRs? I love all the hard work everyone is doing but Ahead of time compile which will let us trim / optimize the binary should really be amazing. I believe is the last needed set of the work to fully enable it. github.com/microsoft/Po...
