Re There's lots more, including a bunch of improvements for extension authors to things like customized context menus for webviews, badges for tree views and checkboxes for tree items.
Re And in our last bit of Python newsssssss 🐍 (sorry), we'll now setup a virtual environment for you with the Python: Create Environment command.

Re If you didn't know (I didn't until I made this thread), you can delete a notebook cell with 'dd'. And the Interactive Window now supports bringing it back with CMD/Ctrl + Z.

Re You can also specify the slideshow type for a notebook to turn your notebooks into a nifty presentation.

Re You can now tag cells in Notebooks without having to touch the underlying JSON. Or JASON.
This allows us to parameterize them for papermill or customize for nbconvert.
Theme: GitHub Light
Re We heard your feedback that using the word "remote" in our extensions can lead to confusion. So we renamed the Remote-WSL and Remote-Containers extensions to "WSL" and "Dev Containers".

Re We've been working on a VS Code extension that supports running Python code in
You can even get a REPL. In your browser. What a time to be alive!

Re PROFILES. Have you tried them? Hopefully so because it's one of the most request features. Ever. Enable with `workbench.experimental.settingsProfiles.enabled`.
There is now a customizable profile indicator in the Activity Bar.

Re You can now get `code` in your browser omnibox...search bar thingy. This makes it easier to open your GitHub repos in
1. Install the VS Code Chrome/Edge extension
2. Type `code`
3. Search for your GitHub repo and viola!

Re Hey. You. What's that sound. Oh, that's your Task ending. You can enable it with `audioCues.taskEnded`. Great for improved accessibility and multi-tasking.
You can also pin your fave tasks to the top for easy access.

Re 💡 Quick fix in the terminal? Why not.
We've just started rolling this feature out, but today you can get quick fixes when you try to run a process on a port that's in use, botch a git command, forget to push your branch, or even just to help you create a PR.

Re If you 🎶 still haven't found what you're looking for 🎶 when using Search, we added the ability to view results as a tree.
Just toggle between the list and tree views with the list/tree icon in the top corner of the search view.

Re So...we got some great feedback on the new Merge Editor. Thank you! 🙏
As requested, the new merge editor is now opt-in (previous update). We also replaced the checkboxes for selecting changes with a CodeLens UI that uses textual labels.
Theme: Tailwind Ice
Re In other news, if you edit files inside of the VS Code application folder (this happens more than you would think), you now get a warning that updates may unceremoniously overwrite any changes you make.
Theme: Noctis
Re Next up: Tree view find widget (the find box that appears when you search in the sidebar)
You can now move the tree find widget vertically so you can see who's hiding behind it.
Theme: Amethyst
Re You can also sort installed Extensions now by Install Count, Rating, Name, Published Date and Updated Date.
Re You can now ignore updates for an extension by clicking the Ignore Updates button in the Update dropdown action. This will remove the extension from the extensions requiring attention list.

GitHub Codespaces are pure magic:
Click a button on GitHub to spin up a new one with a full dev environemnt within a minute.
Open it in your **local** VS Code. The backend runs in cloud, the UI local.
Start a dev server and ports are automatically mapped to your local machine.

TIL; a life saving hack in @code; the time line view. Regardless of git commits, it will store changes to your files. So when you changed something, you can most likely find it back in the time line view:
