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.

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.

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.

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:

I've been re-writing the @code terminal docs over the past couple of months, moving from 1 very cramped page to 5 pages. It's finally done and deployed as of this morning 🎉
Almost every feature is documented now, a lot of cool stuff was hidden before

Check out this awesome example of Jupyter notebooks in VS Code!
Marlene Mhangami: If you've ever wondered how snapchat filters🐶 or live action motion capture animations are made🏰, the #Python package #mediapipe provides the tools to do this in just a few lines of code🐍✨
The code on the screen is literally all I used👩🏿💻💕

Tiny tip for Rust teams using VSCode: You can configure your VSCode project to run the Nightly formatter, which gives you some extra formatting options unavailable in regular Rust.

You got a merge conflict in @code? Share it with me and I'll try to help you solving it 😉 Every shared conflict helps us to optimize the new merge editor in VS Code!
Just open the merge editor, use the command "Copy Merge Editor State As JSON" and share the output with me
RT Stefan Judis
Whoot! TIL that @code stores all saved file versions. They're included in the "timeline" panel next to the git commits. This works across restarts and all!😲
Thx, @heyAustinGil for sharing this!👏

Austin Ghoul 🧟: New blog post. Who dis?
Shout out to @code's timeline feature for saving my butt by restoring files that weren't being tracked by Git.

🛠️ VS @code extension pick: GitHub Pull Requests and Issues for @code is VERY good.
Makes checking out out a PR, adding comments to a specific change, and making a change yourself so much better.
