Open in GitHub

Open the current project or file in github.com.

There are many other extensions for doing this, but they either didn't work well for me or they provided too few/many functionalities.

Install

Clone this repo
npm install (don't try to use pnpm; it will break later steps)
pnpm add -g @vscode/vsce
rm -f *.vsix
vsce package
code --install-extension "$(ls *.vsix)"
You're done!
