Go from zero to a live portfolio website using the GitHub Copilot app — no coding
experience required. This is the complete 10-episode student series in one video,
covering the Student Developer Pack, prompting, Git and GitHub Pages, context and
tokens, MCP servers, skills and agent personas, bring-your-own-model, Bootstrap,
and controlling Copilot from your phone.

In this course, you'll learn:
→ How to claim the GitHub Student Developer Pack and install the Copilot app + VS Code
→ How to turn a resume PDF into a real portfolio website by prompting, not coding
→ What Git, commits, branches, diffs, and pull requests actually are — explained on a lightboard
→ How to publish your site free on GitHub Pages and redeploy every time you edit
→ How to control Copilot with Interactive, Plan, and Autopilot modes
→ How context windows and tokens work, and how to use /init, /context, and /compact
→ How to extend Copilot with built-in tools and MCP servers like Playwright
→ How to build a reusable agent skill and install skills from a plugin marketplace
→ How to bring your own model with Microsoft Foundry and the Azure for Students credit
→ How to run a Copilot session from your phone with remote control and a QR code
