@raspiduino
we have a way of supporting VS Code extensions but we will not support the ones not developed by us.
If you develop an extension and it causes the user to break the IDE or lose work we cannot be responsible for it.
This is the main reason why we do not advertise this feature.

You can look at documentation for Theia and develop extensions in TypeScript

Thanks anyway!

Support for extending the IDE capabilities via an analog to the classic Arduino IDE "tools" system is being tracked here: #58 and one for VSX support here: #207
