Enable vscode-color extension to run on VS Code on the Web

[isidorn]

:wave: I'm Isidor, a PM from the VS Code team, and we recently announced VS Code for the Web at https://vscode.dev/, which provides a free, zero-install Microsoft Visual Studio Code experience running entirely in your browser. You can learn more here.

We'd like to ensure vscode-color can run in the web, and we have a guide for enabling extensions for the web here. As a couple of highlights:

• In VS Code for the Web, both the UI and extension host run inside the browser.
• A web extension is structured like a regular extension, but with a different main file: it's defined by the browser property
• Access to workspace files needs to go through the VS Code file system API accessible at vscode.workspace.fs
• There are currently three ways to test a web extension

Please let us know if you have questions or feedback on enabling your extension for the web - our team would love to learn from your experiences and collaborate. Thank you!

Hi @isidorn, thank you for the comment. I think that the making vscode-color run in the web is difficult because it uses external program. Also, I think that the extension has already finished its part since VS Code supported internal color picker. Then, I think that changing the extension for the web is not needed. Thank you for your proposal and the information! :smile:

Thanks for providing more details. I do agree with you. Let's close this as no work planned.
