A minimap! This was one of the last remaining Sublime features that I missed.

So happy to see the improved task support(key bindings!) that's one of the few things that was missing in some of my more custom workflows.

i wonder if they're forced to run the highlighter on a huge range now instead of restricting it to viewport.

has this affected perf?

Awesome work VSCode team!!

I can't figure out how to enable TypeScript auto import - is it hidden behind a flag? Coming from IDEs, I've been waiting for this feature for a long time.

Copy Syntax Highlight is huge. Years ago, I had written a utility to invoke syntax highlighting from text sources for use in PowerPoint presentations and Photoshop editing (https://github.com/minimaxir/copy-syntax-highlight-osx/ ); I am very happy it is now obsolete.

Geez, another fantastic update.

Minimap! I love this in Visual Studio.

Keyboard shortcuts for tasks! Very welcome.

Clickable links in the terminal is awesome for BitBucket which responds to pushes w/ links to create PRs.

I'd imagine the highlighter wouldn't optimize for viewable area except for abnormally large files. Highlighter probably runs for the full file.

Also, doesn't it need the context of the full file for proper syntax awareness?

VSCode team is killing it! Literally every month its tangibly making the product better. I still use Sublime occasionally on really large files as its performance is so good but for most things VSCode is my go-to!
