Of course is a polite way to show agreement or say yes without hesitation. It means the speaker is happy or willing to do something. For example:
Of course, I'll help you with the report. – This means the speaker is glad to help.
Will is often used to make promises or express a decision at the moment of speaking. For example:
I'll email you the file this afternoon. – This shows a promise to do something soon.
