PowerShell Extension for Visual Studio Code February 2023 Update
We are excited to announce that the February update to the PowerShell Extension for Visual Studio Code is now available on the extension marketplace. In this update we rewrote all the symbol logic.

We now have a single visitor that builds a cached dictionary of symbols for each file instead of a dozen similar-yet-different Abstract Symbol Tree (AST) PowerShell script visitors handling different parts of each symbol-related request. This was a massive simplification of the code that also leads to huge performance improvements across all the symbol...

PowerShell Extension for Visual Studio Code October 2022 Update
We are excited to announce that the October update to the PowerShell Extension for Visual Studio Code is now available on the extension marketplace. This October stable release incorporates a number of bugfixes throughout September and early October, though is not based on the latest preview, v2022.10.1-preview, as the refactors involved in enabling TypeScript's strict type checking and ESLint's strict linting will need more testing. However, based on the success of the PowerShell Script Analyzer's v1.21.0 release we wanted to get this to you sooner! Updates in the October Release Note that these update...
