Hi Everyone,

I'm the author of a Python extension for the open source, MIT licensed and cross platform Visual Studio Code Editor (https ://code.visualstudio.com/).
This is developed using nodejs and python, MIT licensed running on all major OS (OS X, Linux and Windows).
The major features include:
- Auto complete (intellisense)
- Code navigation
- Linting (mypy, pep8, pylint, flake8, etc)
- Unit tests (pytest, nose, unittest)
- Jupyter (IPython)
- Debugging (django, flask, remote debugging, docker, multi threads, django templates, SSH, etc)
- Code formatting (autopep8, yapf)
- Refactoring, 
- Snippets and more

Please note, this is open source and MIT licensed. This isn't meant to be a competitor to IDEs like PyCharm, instead is a lightweight and cross platform alternative (editor).

I'm looking for some assistance in improving the capabilities of this extension (adding more features), looking for feedback suggestions and any help in maintaining it as well.
