Tried GitHub Copilot code reviews for PRs —and I'm impressed!
It is able to catch subtle logic bugs and readability issues.
Wasn’t expecting it to be this helpful.
Give it a shot! 💻🤖

TIL: iOS still has UIReturnKeyType constants "Google" & "Yahoo" — not even deprecated 😀 ! UIReturnKeyType tweaks the keyboard's return key label: “Next”, “Done”, “Send”, etc.

Both just show “Search” today.
