From 3:50 to 4:36, David demonstrates "in-line showing of evaluation results". If that's not working (as it wasn't for me) then you may have the wrong preferences set. To fix: F1 -> 'Preferences: Open Settings (UI)' -> 'Extensions' -> 'Julia' -> 'Execution:Result Type' -> either 'both' or 'inline'

Beautiful. As a suggestion, I think Julia quality videos of real data analysis are needed on YouTube. You can find tones of these type of videos for R and Python, but you barely find them for Julia.

I spent 15 minutes to figure out how the author gets the input window where he types "julia repl" at the very beginning (1:55). Unfortunately he does not explain it at all and it is not possible to see which shortkeys he is using. It turned that that window is called "Command Palette" (View -> Command Palette), Ctrl+Shift+P.

Is there any way for the autocompletion to show you the column names while you select the columns?

[kristiantorres]

Amazing! Thank you so much for all the hard work that you've put into this extension.

Great presentation, David! Very smooth and informative. I especially appreciated the quick overview of remote VS Code capabilities at the end of the video.

Tolle Präsentation, die mir viel Zeit gespart hat. Vielen Dank.

Reminded me of the "mother of all demos". Very nice, thanks!

I also spent 15 minutes to understand how to open a new folder "VSCODEDEMO" and to open a Julia REPL. Now I am stuck I cannot "activate ." Instead of (vsdedemocode) prompt I get a "Julia" prompt and the command "pkg" makes an error.

Is VScode ever going to update enough for Julia so I can use Julia 1.53 as I notice it only recognizes 1.08

Hi, inline result doesn't work for me, even with the option set as "both" in the settings. I read somewhere that I should use alt+enter to run the lines of code but it runs python code in jupyter with my settings. How can I set the alt+enter correctly in the keyboard shortcuts menu?

at 5:24 u need the data preview extension to see the data in the new tab

Hi, thanks for this great extension. I have one question about building sysimage of my environment in vsc. When I do that, Tasks-build ... I get sysimage with packages included in my project - that's ok but with that come all packages included in default Project.toml, where are all packages I installed on my computer. Compilation takes ages and sysimage is tremendously big due to the inclusion of unintended packages. How can I prevent or change behavior of creating sysimages (I don't see any option in vsc settings)?

[chantingcc]

why I can not see anything on the workspace? It is always blank.

[anguscampbell]

2:00 How does he get the command line julia> to switch to pkg> ?

[locutusdiborg]

p|> save ("foo.png") doesn't work for me, it says imageio writer error: neither save nor fileio_save is defined

[kristiantorres]

@2:06 how can we add unregistered packages that are already installed (were previously added) outside this environment?

[johndelilo]

@4:29 should be *hover* not *hoover* !

I cannot stand VS code or VS or Pycharm period. R Studio is awesome and convenient and easy to work with. If they can do something like that instead of cobbling Atom to something or Eclipse to something or VS code that would be really good. I don't want to be tied to M$ or use a heavy java app like Pycharm.

I am very pissed of when open source community gets on the microsoft products...Nothing comes good from microsoft imho.
