Microsofts VS Code 1.45 is out: GitHub integration plus JavaScript debugger update

▤ Summary

Microsoft has released version 1.45 of its Visual Studio Code editor for Windows, Mac, and Linux with updates for its JavaScript debugger, TypeScript improvements, faster syntax highlighting, as well as automatic authentication for GitHub repositories, and new support for GitHub Issues. The VS Code JavaScript debugger for debugging Node.js and web apps in Edge and Chrome has gained the ability to capture CPU profiles from them. The profile is then saved and when opened, VS Code adds CodeLens to files that contain performance information. Microsoft has also made some changes to the behavior when using the mouse wheel to scroll over multiple editor tabs. Finally, the VS Code team have written a Web Assembly binding for up to three times faster syntax highlighting.
