Every week, the GitHub team runs a stream called Rubber Duck Thursdays, where we build projects live, cowork with our community, and answer questions!

This week, we built a very fun project together using the GitHub Copilot CLI! Let me tell you about it.

💡 New to GitHub Copilot CLI? Here’s how to get started.

What is it?

In a lot of social media tweets and launches, you often see accounts post things like:

We shipped the most amazing emoji list generator ever. It:

💻 Works in the CLI 🤖 Uses the Copilot SDK to intelligently convert your bullet points to relevent emoji 📋 Copies the result to the clipboard

It’s beautiful. But coming up with the perfect emoji is far too slow for me in this “move fast and break things” world. I have projects to build! Repos to vibe! Pull requests to merge! I can’t be thinking about emojis!
