VS Code ExtendScript Debugger update requested

Question

I'm utilizing the VS Code ExtendScript Debugger and already have to use the Intel/Rosetta version of VS Code to run the extension which makes the application slow. The newest update of VS Code must have changed something that now makes using the application with Rosetta agonizingly unbearably slow (nigh unusable). My team reverted back to the previous version of VS Code to try to continue development but this is just a quick fix that may quickly expire as the industry continues moving forward. It would be amazing if the extension could be updated to work on Apple's Silicon chips. I read the Known Issues section for the debugger but this most recent update to VS Code seems to require that an update be made soon to continue the ease of scripting. Has anyone else noticed this issue?

@glalliss -As mentioned by @m1b , it has been already released. Below is the link from where you can download https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Getting-Started-guides/releasesInstallation instructionsOpen the Extensions nav (Cmd + Shift + E) and uninstall the previous version. Install the .vsix file by dropping it onto the application window.

@glalliss actually the ExtendScript Debugger *has* been updated to run on Apple Silicon. I've been using it for weeks and it's wonderfully fast.

You will have to install the Apple silicon version of VSCode to take advantage of it.
