2021.8.11 (3 August 2021)

Enhancements

1. Updated the preview to run by line in native notebooks. Set the jupyter.experimental.debugging setting to true, install ipykernel 6 on your selected kernel and a Run by Line button will appear on cell toolbars. Pressing it will start a lightweight debugging session and let you run the cell line by line.
