Description
The current CONTRIBUTING.md
document doesn't explain how a contributor can bundle the VSCode extension, and it doesn't explain how to launch VSCode with the bundled extension.
Steps to reproduce
- Open the document
CONTRIBUTING.md
- Check the
Development
header - It mentions a watch mode for debugging, but it's unclear how it works. I pressed in
F5
, but it didn't do anything
Expected behavior
I would expect more information for people who aren't accustomed to the developments of the project
Does this issue occur when using the CLI directly?
Not sure / Not applicable
Logs
No response
AFAIK, the F5 shortcut is VS Code's default to start the debugger, so it should work out of the box. Could you try running the Debug: Start Debugging
command from the command palette and see if this works?
I pressed F5 when I opened VSCode, and it didn't do anything. I opened a project and went to the plugin page, and it worked.
Does F5 work when a project is open?
Should work within the extension's project.

Oh, then I didn't understand how it works ๐
Sorry, looking at this flow for the first time and I'm having a hard time. Consider that my experience is very basic and there might be a lot of steps that I'm missing. Does it open two instances of VSCode?
