che: How can I find tasks.json since it's no longer under /projects folder?

Summary

I have updated the devfile to use latest version from theia, today I am creating a new workspace, and the directory .theia in the project folder is no longer used and not created, I created it and yet it’s still not used.

Because I am using promptString and shell tasks, I don’t know how to write these in the devfile, so what I do, is that I created a tasks that overwrites the tasks.json. Can you please advise a workaround or share examples of devfiles with shell tasks and input are used?
