<![CDATA[Core2 with Visual Studio Code]]>I would like to develop a project in MicroPython for the Core2.

I followed the video tutorial for Micropython Development for M5Stack in VSCode. I get to the point when the vscode-m5stack-mpy extension is installed in Visual Studio Code, which succeeds.

However, after this step the button "Add M5Stack" is supposed to appear at the bottom of the VS Code window. This is not happening here.

Has anyone done this successfully with a Core2 device? What am I doing wrong?

It might help to know that the UIFlow IDE is working fine. I am using Ubuntu 20.4.

All the example code I found was for a model with buttons not touch screen and several libraries that I haven't got to work on a core2.
