Visual Studio Code version 1.91, released in June 2024, brings some intriguing new features. The Source Control view has been updated to visualize code changes more clearly, displaying incoming and outgoing changes in a graph format for better clarity. This feature is currently in the preview stage.
The Profiles Editor now offers a user-friendly UI for managing user profiles, allowing users to create, edit, and delete profiles. This feature is also in the preview stage.
Other changes include the addition of a new tool called python-environment-tools, which helps search for Python installations on the system and allows for the use of virtual environment variables. This tool is written in Rust and operates faster than its predecessor.
A new feature called Smart Send in native REPL allows Python code to be run instantly and supports the use of Shift+Enter to send executable code for a higher chance of successful execution. Previously, code would be sent and run directly on the same line, even if it was incomplete and might not run successfully.
Furthermore, Visual Studio Code now supports TypeScript version 5.5, the latest update.
TLDR: Visual Studio Code version 1.91 introduces new features like improved Source Control visualization, Profiles Editor, python-environment-tools, Smart Send in native REPL, and support for TypeScript 5.5.
