thanks for the video.

I did not know one can use Microsoft Visual studio code to edit Ada
programs these days. Is this now the alternative to GNAT GPS editor?

And looking at your video, I see lots of words with a
straight line showing across some of the words. Why is that?
For example

     Gtk.Widget;

Show with line across the middle of the word Widget, which makes
it hard to read. is there a reason why the editor adds this line?
