02/17/2023, 4:26 PMIndeed! @alexander_butler created the Meltano Power User extension, and I think it's pretty sweet. Started from a fork of dbt Power User. Right now the focus is on Meltano Hub and plugin discovery, but we have plans to keep adding features and capabilities. If anyone is interested in contributing to that, let me or @alexander_butler know 😄

02/17/2023, 4:55 PMYou're in good company, @Matt Menzenski. Many Meltano team members also have other IDEs they prefer. 🤷
I do personally like it - mostly because its cross-platform and because of the extensions library, and because it plays well in cloud environments like Codespaces.
