I wanted to install a hot and cold water bidet on my toilet, so I need to get hot water from the pipes feeding into my faucets. The issue is that the pipes from the valves to the faucet are all copper, so I can't just install the included T joint (unless I can?). So I want to replace the copper with a braided stainless steel one from amazon:
KES IUS2024-P2 Faucet Connector, Braided Stainless Steel – 3/8" Female Compression Thread x 1/2" I.P. Female Straight Thread, 24" Length x 2 Pcs (1 Pair)
The issue I have now is that the faucets itself uses copper pipes, so I need to somehow connect the stainless steel pipes to the copper one.
I clearly don't know anything about pipes, so any help would be great. I also thought about just replacing the faucet out right, but I kinda like my current one.

All you need to do is gets the appropriate tee for the job.
This tee allows you to connect two compression output to one input

Turn off the water and open the taps.
Unscrew the copper and gently bend it to allow space for the tee.
Attach the tee and connect the copper to the tee at the most convenient branch.
Attach the braided stainless to the other branch.
Open the valves, check for leaks, close the taps, check for leaks and done!
