In this article, I share how constant frustration with inconsistent AI coding suggestions led me to create Copilot Instructions — a simple but powerful way to turn AI struggles into clear project standards. Instead of explaining the same coding preferences over and over, I realized we can guide AI like we guide human teammates: with written instructions. That’s exactly what .github/copilot-instructions.md does. I’ve even provided ready-made templates for Laravel, React, PHP, and more, so teams can quickly align AI tools like GitHub Copilot with their coding style. The whole point? Less frustration, more consistent code, and AI that actually understands your project.
