Add additional 'run'/'debug' control buttons inside radon

[pzoltowski]

Description

Would be great to add additional separate control buttons for run and debug similar like intellij IDE. I found VSCode experience is a little annoying since you have to precisely aim cursor at this small icon to trigger change context menu and toggle between run and debug (unless you build muscle memory for shortcuts).

I didn't found any way in VSCode to customize those button and move to top bar and 2 seperate buttons. Having an option inside Randon even if redundant would help those native devs that coming from Xcode and Intellij to VSCode.

Hi! Thanks for posting this issue. I'm a bit confused about what would be the feature. Radon IDE is always run in debugging mode, and we provide our own controls for it:

We don't use VSCode debugging UI, so, unless I misunderstood you, I don't see how it is relevant to Radon IDE. Could you expand on it?

If you'd like to learn about our debugging features I'm leaving link do the docs: https://ide.swmansion.com/docs/features/debugging-and-logging#setting-a-breakpoint.

So the idea was to improve VSCode experience and limitation - AFAIK there is no way in VSCode to tweak position and looks of those run/debug buttons. Ideally I would like to have seperate buttons for run and debug and ideally somewher in the top bar (but it seems impossible in VSCode?). I just like the typical behavior in Xcode and in Jetbrains IDE when they are both 2 different buttons, more prominent looking and always in top bar.

So the second options would be to just have such buttons additionally in Radon IDE (e.g. at the bottom). Yeah run button probably doesn't make sense for debuggin but still sometime you want to run application without debugging it. VSCode kind of forcing to snipper hunting for this tiny combox to change button behavior. Not a big deal overall and probably not priority but for me thats small VSCode annoyance coming from mobile native IDEs.
