Feature Request
Description
Users are requesting a method to learn about changes after every extension update. Currently, when the device-manager or other extensions are updated, users don't have an easy way to see what's new or what has changed.
Proposed Solution
Integrate changelog display functionality into the device-manager extension that automatically shows the changelog after an extension update is installed.
Implementation Ideas
- Display changelog in a VS Code notification or webview panel after update
- Use the existing CHANGELOG.md files from each extension
- Could be triggered by version comparison (stored last-seen version vs current version)
- Provide a "What's New" command to manually view changelog at any time
Benefits
- Improved user awareness of new features and fixes
- Better user experience and engagement
- Helps users understand breaking changes or new functionality
Extensions Affected
- device-manager (primary integration point)
- session-manager
- pamir-welcome
Additional Context
The extensions already maintain CHANGELOG.md files, so the content is available. The feature would primarily need:
- Version tracking mechanism
- Changelog parsing/display logic
- UI component to present the information
