Environment data

  • VS Code version: 1.52.1
  • OS and version: macOS Catalina

I've got an existing python flask project, which I run from the command line on macOS using flask run. I'd like to use VS Code, so I tried code ., which opens it up. But instructions online said to install the python extension to VS Code, and links me here.

That page says "Step 2. Install the Python extension for Visual Studio Code." but doesn't say how. It took me forever to look in the banner area to notice the Install button. Add "by clicking the Install button above" to make this clearer.
