To enable suggestions for GitHub Copilot with a Tab key, follow the steps below.

  1. Open the file keybindings.json in Visual Studio Code. This can be done by pressing Ctrl + Shift + P, and typing Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON).

  2. In keybindings.json, add the following.

    [
      {
        "key": "tab",
        "command": "editor.action.inlineSuggest.commit",
        "when": "textInputFocus && inlineSuggestionHasIndentationLessThanTabSize && inlineSuggestionVisible && !editorTabMovesFocus"     
      }
    ]
    

This should now enable you to accept suggestions in Markdown using the Tab key!
