Thanks to your comment I discovered that my IntelliSense doesn’t work the way I expected, so I’m afraid I’ll have to understand that before I answer ^^

> I recently discovered that autocomplete (and more generally IntelliSense) works for some people, and that makes me very frustrated rofl For me it only works with Base and Core, not even standard library stuff like LinearAlgebra. EDIT: see [this reply](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/for-which-packages-does-vscode-autocomplete-work/101360/4) for the real question. I’m on macOS Ventura with the latest version of Julia and VSCode. I did wait until IntelliSense finished loading.
