🎯 What’s New in v1.32.0?

• GitHub Copilot integration (Preview): AI-assisted coding inside the MSSQL extension
  • ORM scaffolding: Generate Sequelize, Prisma, or EF Core models instantly
  • Schema comprehension: Understand complex relationships, joins, views, and stored procedures
  • Performance optimization: Get suggestions to improve query efficiency
  • Test data generation: Automatically populate tables with mock data
  • Security insights: Detect risky patterns and improve access control and formatting
• New UI – General Availability: The modernized UI is now stable and available by default, including improvements to the Connection Dialog, Object Explorer, Query Results, and Table Designer.
