@netizen-ais, Can you be more precise on wich notifications you would like to see in a toast please ?

Of course. I forked a similar package for the Atom IDE that was idle for a long time. I added that feature and the notifications I did implement were protocol+file with local/remote paths, and process result.

I didn't take the time to inspect vscode's API, but I'd live a similar (maybe biassed) approach

Would you actually be ok to do add it to the extension and create a pull-request ?

I'd love to, but I've no time to learn Typescript as of now. If with such a user base nobody asked this, then maybe nobody but me wants it

@Natizyskunk I've just configured a dev and prod profiles, and I'm using an Elgato Stream Deck with vscode integration. I have set up a button to switch to a specific profile when pressed (using the args). I would love for there to be a toast notification of when a profile changes, letting me know of the new profile. I think this would be the perfect usage of toast notification.

Please can you make this happen, thanks.
