Summary
This post announces the release of the Visual Studio 2015 version of the CodeLens Indicator for Code Health. This extension updates the previous Visual Studio 2013 version and displays the current Maintainability Index for code elements. It recalculates metrics dynamically as a file is edited and shows the trend of the value. The extension uses Roslyn and required changes to work with VS 2015. It also notes that metrics may not always match between VS Code Metrics window, SonarQube, and this indicator, with a backlog item to reconcile them.
