Testing VS Code Extensions Locally
# Install vsce
npm install -g @vscode/vsce\n
cd extensionfolder
vsce package
# Note: To get this to work on src/extenson.tsx source I needed to
# change it to src/extension.js. I haven't had time to debug it properly.
# This should create a (extention).vsix file in the root folder.
# Open command pallet (F1 on Mac)
# Find the command - Extensions: Install from VSIX...
# Navigate to (extension).vsix file in root.
# View the installed extension in your Extensions pane.
