This is a functional release; another minor release will be made very soon with updated stubs.
Implemented enhancements:
- Show Pico Pin Map - editor layout #80
Fixed bugs:
- Disable Most Aggressive Keyboard Shortcut Thiefs #82
- Command 'picogo.initialise' not found after installing extension #79

- Request more useful error message #69
- Support Anaconda managed environments #68
Fixed bugs:

v1.3.0 (2021-03-15)
The headline for this release is the new in-built FTP server allowing you to manage the files on your Pico's board using your FTP client of choice. This might be something like FileZilla, a broader file management application, or even a VS Code extension. Follow the link above to get started.
You can also now check whether you have the latest stable firmware release from the Command Palette: choose Pico-Go > Help > Check for firmware updates. If an update is available, you can click to start the download to your computer. Apply the downloaded file to your Pico in the usual way.
You'll notice some changes to the status bar in this release: buttons will disappear when they're not available to use. For example, the ability to upload or download files won't be shown when you're in the middle of running some code that hasn't finished yet.
Additionally, Pico-Go now has a "universal stop button". Whether you're trying to stop your code, cancel a file transfer or close down the FTP server, it's the same button for all of the above! This will appear automatically when something is in progress and disappear once it's stopped.
Finally, this version won't take as long to download! It looks like the original Pymakr code we inherited included a dependency on Electron (i.e. aside from the one used by VS Code). This meant the total package size was well over 100MB. It was unnecessary and has been removed, and the package size is around 20MB!
From here onward, the focus will be on bug-fixing and polish rather than significant change. I feel the product scope is about right now; it's all about smoothing rough edges and keeping the auto-completion and linting up-to-date from here.
Enjoy!
Implemented enhancements:
- Check for firmware updates #61
- Universal stop button / hiding buttons when not available #59
- Manage files on your Pico via FTP #55
Fixed bugs:
- Electron and Electron-Rebuild are included as dependencies; shouldn't be! #63
- Window reload leaves a broken terminal behind #62
- Error raised when Run is clicked and no file is open #60
v1.2.3 (2021-03-13)
Fixes a conflict that could arise where Python 2 and 3 are both installed on the same machine.
Fixed bugs:
- Unable to start terminal | terminated with exit code 1. #57
v1.2.2 (2021-03-08)
This fixes a huge CPU load issue introduced by the new Python-based terminal proxy and also ensures print() statements are returned to the Pico Console in real time, as opposed to only at the end of executing.
Fixed bugs:
- Reduce CPU load of Python terminal implementation #52
- Pico Console not updating at runtime with print() statements #51
v1.2.1 (2021-03-06)
This release removes the dependency on Node JS being installed on the computer (aside from the version included with Electron). It also fixes something that really ought to have been fixed in v1.2.0: when running a file, a soft reset will be performed beforehand.
Implemented enhancements:
- Cosmetic: change "run" icon #48
- Remove dependency on Node JS installation (external to Electron) #46
Fixed bugs:
- Pico not resetting before Run #49
v1.2.0 (2021-03-04)
A few bits of new functionality including a Pin Map and a few bug fixes, however the majority of the work that went into this release, you won't see! The codebase has been significantly refactored to make it far more maintainable and amenable to whatever fun stuff we want to do in the future!
There is one breaking change: if you have a pymakr.conf file in your project, rename it to pico-go.json. I've chosen not to automate this just in case you're still using Pymakr for your non-Pico projects.
Implemented enhancements:
- Show Pico Pin Map via Command Palette #41
- Remove callback spaghetti #35
- Feature/async await #44 (cpwood)
Fixed bugs:
- pico-go.net domain suspended #42
- Terminal exits repeatedly with exit code: 1 #28
- code formatting in Visual Studio Code (keybinding conflict) #40
- Can't configure new project: "pymakr.initialise failed" #38
- Only show recommended extensions if not already installed #37
- REPL while running #34
- Not resetting code in Pico? #32
- Uploading the current file from a nested folder fails when the equivalent folders don't exist on the Pico #30
v1.1.0 (2021-02-17)
Check out the brand new Pico-Go web site!
Linting and autocompletion can now be set up by choosing:
Pico-Go > Configure project
To see this in action, visit the Quick Start guide.
Stubs for the Pico (firmware 1.14) have been included within the Pico-Go extension. Pylance is used for linting.
Additionally, it's now possible collect version information for support tickets by choosing:
Pico-Go > Extra > Get support info
This will give output similar to the following in the REPL console:
Pico-Go: 1.1.0
VS Code: 1.53.2
Electron: 11.2.1
Modules: 85
Node: 12.18.3
Platform: darwin
Architecture: x64
Board: Raspberry Pi Pico with RP2040

Finally, I've added an alert to advise that the extension isn't currently compatible with SSH Remoting.
Implemented enhancements:
- Provide an easier means of gathering version info for support tickets #26
- Include stubs within Pico-Go #24
- Alert the user if VSCode Remote - SSH extension in use #23
