Feedback on Flutter Sidebar #6563

Description

Setup

  1. Flutter beta channel
  2. VS Code with pre-release Flutter extension v3.75.20231002

Feedback

  1. Recommendation: For the DevTools options in the Debug Sessions section, add Open DevTools in Web browser option
  2. In Devices section, Chrome and macOS show even when a project doesn't have these enabled. Consider having the behavior be like in the command palette, where platforms that are not enabled say "Enable [platform] for this project"
  3. Android virtual device in Devices section is titled "sdk gphone64 arm64". Ideally should be titled the same as in VS Code (command palette and device picker in the bottom right) which was "Pixel 7 Pro API 34" in this case. Interestingly, the iPhone simulator was correctly titled "iPhone 15 Pro Max" in the sidebar.
  4. Switching between devices in the Devices section of the sidebar changes the device in the device picker in the bottom right of the window, including "selecting" platforms that are not enabled in the project. Hitting F5 doesn't do anything when a platform that's not enabled is selected.
