Flux is a powerful open-source language for working with data that has matured in recent months, making it an ideal time to try it out. Microsoft's Visual Studio Code editor now supports Flux as an extension, providing features like error messaging, syntax highlighting, and querying directly from the code editor. The extension leverages the same parser used in InfluxDB, allowing for a seamless integration with existing workflows. With regular updates planned, Flux support will expand to include intelligent autocompletion, integrated script execution, and other features.
