| | ## Introduction |
| | |
| | {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} can help streamline the process of modernizing and upgrading your Java and .NET applications. {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} will analyze the project, generate a plan, automatically fix issues it encounters when carrying out the plan, and produce a summary. |
| |
|
| | ## Upgrading Java projects |
| |
|
| | You can upgrade a Git-based Maven or Gradle Java project using {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} in {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}. You will need: |
| |
|
| | * Either a **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro %}**, **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro_plus %}**, **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_for_business %}** or **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise %}** [subscription plan](/copilot/about-github-copilot/subscription-plans-for-github-copilot). |
| | * The latest version of [{% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}](https://code.visualstudio.com/). |
