The Liquibase Secure Developer VS Code extension provides multiple ways to execute Liquibase commands and perform operations. You can use the Context menu by right-clicking, which is best for discovering available options, or the Command Palette, which is designed for experienced VSCode and Liquibase users who know exactly what task they need to perform. This guide walks you through each method and when to use them.

Use the Context menu when:

• You're exploring available options

• You're working with a specific file or resource

• You're learning the extension's capabilities

• You prefer visual browsing over typing

Use the Command Palette when:

• You know exactly which command you need

• You want to work quickly without navigating menus

• You prefer keyboard-driven workflows

• Are comfortable with command names and shortcuts

Both methods lead to the same powerful command wizard, ensuring a consistent experience regardless of how you start your operation.
