Rovo for GitHub Copilot leads Atlassian’s new developer focused innovations at GitHub Universe
Jan 15, 2025Josh Devenny
Summary
This post introduces the Atlassian Rovo for GitHub Copilot extension, which allows developers to access Jira and Confluence data directly within their IDE via Copilot. This integration aims to reduce context switching by enabling developers to ask questions about issues, requirements, and documentation, and use this context to assist Copilot in code writing. It also highlights new AI-focused developer agents for accelerating workflows from issue to pull request and fast-tracking code reviews.
