Relatively small update today, but with a major impact!
As it turned out, the nice little icons shown in the file tree (by the vscode-icons extension), is quite hard on memory and CPU usage and even has issues reported on memory leaks. These little icons cause major CPU spikes and make the add-on consume almost double the amount of memory. That is not nice, so for now, the icons are removed.
You can still install the vscode-icons extension yourself if you like 👍
Furthermore, some other tweaks have been made, to improve performance and experience. For new installations (or if you reset your configuration), more folders and files are hidden by default and excluded from the search index of the add-on.
Finally, auto-completion for the Home Assistant CLI was missing in the previous release, which is now added back in. So if you type ha in the terminal and hit the TAB key twice, it will show you a selection of possibilities, including descriptions.
