Released: Mar 3, 2024

Features

• AI Snippets - This update introduces smart snippets. Based on your code, the editor generates inline suggestions with placeholders.
• Refactorings
  • Concatenation to String interpolation refactoring.
  • Smart if-else to switch refactorings.
• Unnecessary Parentheses - Parentheses that can be safely removed are dimmed in the code now, and a corresponding code fix "Remove unnecessary parentheses" is available.
• Formatting - Introduced the wrapping formatting option Compact empty body into '{}', which now automatically converts an empty function body into {} and maintains it on the same line as the preceding symbol, separated by a single space. Additionally, this release includes support for the wrapping option Always, ensuring that the appropriate syntax construct is always wrapped.
