Prerequisites

  1. Node.js

Development workflow

Incremental Build

Run the build Task from the Command Palette (short cut CTRL+SHIFT+B or ⇧⌘B)

Errors and Warnings

TypeScript errors and warnings will be displayed in VS Code in the Problems Panel (CTRL+SHIFT+M or ⇧⌘M)

###Validate your changes To test the changes you launch a development version of VS Code on the workspace vscode, which you are currently editing. Use the "Launch Extension" launch option.

###Unit Tests Run the Unit Tests via the "Launch Test" launch option.

##Debugging the extension ###Standard Debugging Clone the repo into any directory and start debugging. From there use the "Launch Extension" launch option.

###Debugging the Python Extension Debugger The easiest way to debug the Python Debugger (in my opinion) is to clone this git repo directory into your extensions directory.
From there use the "Attach to python debug server" launch option.
