Contributing

Feel free to open issues to report bugs or require features.

Pull requests are welcomed too! See VS Code's official instructions about:

• How to run and debug extensions
• How to run extension tests
  • Protip: change suite( to suite.only( in a test file to run only a single test suite at a time. This saves quite a lot of time. Remember to remove the .only part before making a Git commit.
