A new version of VSCodium, tagged as 1.106.27818, has been released with several behind-the-scenes adjustments to keep the code editor current and secure. Key updates include upgrading dependencies such as signpath/github-action-submit-signing-request from version 1 to 2 and updating action dependencies like actions/upload-artifact. The update also includes refreshed patches for smoother performance and a subtle change in how VSCodium reads product.json files from the command line. Additionally, Electron has been upgraded within this build to version 6, and the maximum icon size on macOS has been increased for sharper visuals or accessibility improvements.

VSCodium 1.106.27818 released

A new version of VSCodium, a binary release stripping away Microsoft branding, telemetry, and licensing from Visual Studio Code itself, has rolled out, this time tagged as 1.106.27818.

This update brings several behind-the-scenes adjustments, mostly focused on keeping things current and secure. Key among them is bumping the signpath/github-action-submit-signing-request dependency from version 1 to 2, and updating related action dependencies like actions/upload-artifact (from v4 to v5) and actions/download-artifact (upgraded to v6).

Elsewhere, patches have been refreshed, which likely contributes to smoother performance. There's also a subtle change in how VSCodium reads the product.json file from the command line.

One visible tweak was raising the maximum icon size on macOS, probably intended for sharper visuals or perhaps accessibility, though details are thin so far. And crucially, Electron has been upgraded within this build (now utilizing version 6 of it).

If you're using VSCodium and want access to these tweaks along with all the core improvements from VS Code's latest update, you can grab the new binary release for your system from the linked Github page below:
