MySQL Shell for VS Code is a brand new extension for MS Visual Studio Code. We have taken the full power of MySQL Shell – our advanced MySQL Client for Developers and DBAs – and made it available directly inside Visual Studio Code.
Together with support for the MySQL Database Service on Oracle Cloud, our new extension offers tons of new features for MySQL developers. Please find a listing of highlighted features below.
