Comment:
Hi Thibaud — thanks for the report here.

expected colored output in the VS Code terminal.
So, I'm going to say wontfix here. I don't see that we can (or should)
spend time working around this when
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8.1 Windows 8.1 is essentially end
of life] — last release 7 years ago — and [https://gs.statcounter.com
/windows-version-market-share/desktop/worldwide/ has such small usage].
That `colorama` solves the issue seems sufficient to me.
Happy if you want to review the [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref
/django-admin/#syntax-coloring Syntax colouring docs] for a tweak.
I hope that seems reasonable.
