Non-developers also get the tools and resources for the development process. Traditional tech gatekeepers have created hierarchical structures that have created bottlenecks. Also resulting in a delayed innovation jump, where many a potential went untapped. To break through this barrier, Microsoft has launched GitHub Spark, an AI-driven tool integrated into the Copilot suite. This tool is designed to assist both experts and amateurs in…
