GitHub Developer Day - Perth

Welcome 👋

This is the companion site for GitHub Developer Day Perth - a hands-on look at agentic coding with GitHub Copilot: what it means, how to get productive with the GitHub App and CLI, how to manage context as sessions grow, and how to build on top of it all with the GitHub Copilot SDK and Microsoft Foundry.

Each session below has its own page with the hero slide (where available), a deeper write-up than you'll see on stage, and links to go further after today.

How to use this site

Use the navigation tabs above (or the menu on mobile) to jump straight to a session. Toggle light/dark mode with the sun/moon icon in the top bar - your preference is remembered automatically.
