0.9.0 Preview

Thank you!

This extension has crossed an impressive milestone - 500,000 Installs!

New Features

• Includes the ability to debug ROS2 launch files using the new debug_launch type.

Notes:
This only debugs the launch file itself - it does not launch any ROS nodes.
If your launch file does execute code, these may launch during debugging.

• Smaller runtime, Faster Startup using WebPack
• .urdf files are now processed with xacro
• Fixes to ROS2 in a container
