# Chat Tutorial
Visual Studio Code's Copilot Chat architecture enables extension authors to integrate with the GitHub Copilot Chat experience.

Chat participants are domain experts that can answer user queries within a specific domain.
This GitHub Copilot Extension sample shows:
- How to contribute a chat participant to the GitHub Copilot Chat view.
