Building the Extension

Setup for Building

TLDR: Install Node.js and optionally Make

Install node and npm on Windows

winget install Node.js
echo Add "C:\Program Files\nodejs" to your path and restart your terminal program

Install node and npm on Ubuntu/Debian

sudo apt install nodejs

Building

npm run build

or

make

Building results in a .vsix file which is basically JavaScript and a few other files archived, and the .zip file is renamed as .vsix.

Continuously build the debug version when source files change

npm run watch

or

make watch

Installing
