VSCode: Creating Visual Studio Code Extensions

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I know this can be a pretty large topic (Especially considering there can be a number of different scenarios for building extension. Commands, LanguageServer, and more).

But thought it could be cool to have a basic live stream of how to start building Visual Studio Code extensions.

What I'm thinking, is perhaps having a stream for users that wishes to start building extensions through basic commands.

Some suggestions of topics

  • Setting up environment to start building extensions (including initial project creation)
  • Creating your first Visual Studio Code command (I'm guessing you could already make use of one of your extensions for this).
  • How to debug extensions.
  • Implementing Unit Tests
  • Implementing Dependency Injection (tip: inversify)

@AdmiringWorm so, I actually have an extension in mind that I want to create, so perhaps once I clear out some other work, I could start a stream for showing how to get started with extension writing.
