Python Extension for Visual Studio Code
News|6 June 2019
Microsoft has announced that the Python Extension for Visual Studio Code is now available in the May 2019 release from the Marketplace. You can also directly install the Python Extension from the extension gallery in Visual Studio Code.
In this release, Microsoft has made many improvements to the Python Language Server and IntelliSense in the Python Interactive Window.
The Python Interactive window now has full IntelliSense so that you can be as productive typing in the interactive window as in the code editor. Improvements have also been made to the Python Language Server’s load time, CPU and memory usage.
For a full list of improvements, you can read Microsoft’s update article or visit their changelog.
