We released v0.5.0 of the julia extension for VS Code. This is a massive update over previous versions. You can see installation instructions and little screen casts of the new features here:

> **[Julia - Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=julialang.language-julia)**
>
> Extension for Visual Studio Code - Julia Language Support

If you like the extension, please review it on the VS Code marketplace! If you find bugs, please report them on the github repository.

Best,  
David

Great job! Works very well indeed…  
Is there any plan to integrate plots?

Yes, but not clear when we will get to that. I think right now we are more focused on the static analysis stuff, i.e. the core editing experience.

There is also work going on to move the Jupyter stuff from the [Python extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayamanne.python) into a separate package so that it also works with julia, and that would also enable plotting.

I agree, those are valid points… 👍
