Oh woah this looks great. Quite amazing they put the effort into this for Postgres instead of SQL Server. The demand must be a lot higher.

The copilot integrations look sweet, as does the schema view. The MSSQL extension doesn't have those, but the rest of it looks similar to the Postgres one.

Lead PM for MSSQL extension in VS Code here. I’m glad to share that we have both features (Schema Designer, GitHub Copilot) into the MSSQL extension for VS Code. You can check out this end-to-end demo showcasing those capabilities: https://aka.ms/vscode-mssql-copilot-demo

As I’ve mentioned in a few other threads, the PostgreSQL team recently forked our MSSQL extension to kick off a fresh implementation for Postgres. It’s built on the same foundation we’re actively improving and evolving for both extensions.

I totally agree and I beg you to consider this feedback if you are reading @pamelafox. The biggest problem with the usability of Microsoft products today is short-sighted thinking. New features, platforms, frameworks etc are launched and then forgotten about just a few years later with no effort to tie into the groundwork of what came before. You might think this is only a problem for old customers who are already ac…

Thanks for sharing this thoughtful feedback.I’d be happy to connect you with the PM leading that area, so your insights can be heard directly—feel free to reach out if you’re interested. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn, and we can go from there: https://www.linkedin.com/in/croblesm/

No problem, thank you for reading it. I'm not sure I have much else constructive to add beyond that. Thank you for your work on this and good luck.

I used Azure Data Studio with SQL Server for a while—decent, but still clunky. I believe this plugin is the evolution of that, so it’s probably solid too—but can't beat out what I'm currently using since it targets only Postgres. It’s going to be tough to beat SQLTools for Sublime Text ( https://code.mteixeira.dev/SublimeText-SQLTools/ ). It’s simple, fast, does the basics right, and crucially, works for many of the…

There is also an extension for VS Code from the same author https://github.com/mtxr/vscode-sqltools

Unfortunately it suffers from many of the same problems.
