Preview builds of PowerShell Editor Services are now available
What the first preview contains
The v2.0.0-preview.1 version of the extension is built on .NET Standard (enabling support for both Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core from one assembly)
It also contains PSReadLine support in the integrated console for Windows behind a feature flag. PSReadLine provides a consistent and rich interactive experience, including syntax coloring and multi-line editing and history, in the PowerShell console, in Cloud Shell, and now in VSCode terminal. For more information on the benefits of PSReadLine, check out their documentation.
To enable PSReadLine support in the Preview version on Windows, please add the following flag to your Start-EditorServices.ps1
call:
-FeatureFlags @('PSReadLine')
