ViewPilot

About

I built ViewPilot because I kept forgetting to use GitHub Copilot. It just wasn't in my flow. So I made a sidebar that's always there — no tab witching, no breaking focus.

Now, whenever I'm studying something or a question pops up, I just ask. It made Copilot actually useful for everyday browsing, not just coding.
