Description

ux

When developing a Spring application on the local desktop version of VS Code, when user starts up a Spring application, our extensions do not provide any visual hints. However, if user does this on Codespaces, it will pop up a message that provides a link that takes user to all available ports, and also offer an “Open in Browser” button

  • We should implement a similar behavior on desktop version. When user starts up a Spring application, we should do a similar pop-up that offers two main features
  • When clicking on “see all forwarded ports”, it would be ideal if we can take user to Spring Boot Tools dashboard instead and see all running applications
  • When clicking on “Open in Browser”, it can directly open the exposed web endpoint like the current Codespaces does.
