Describe your question or ask for support

The "Want to build and install the extension yourself" section says:

Type yarn archive. This will execute the unit tests and create a build folder. This folder contains all the extension files.

When I run this, I got the

$ mocha -r ts-node/register test/**/*.spec.ts
/bin/sh: line 1: mocha: command not found

Now I have installed nodejs-mocha (from AUR), but still there is another error:

$ mocha -r ts-node/register test/**/*.spec.ts

✖ ERROR: Error: Cannot find module 'ts-node/register'

}

Can you please provide a complete instruction to follow, to be able to build the extension?

Anything else?

Hello there, you're missing the very first command to execute after cloning a project: yarn install or simply yarn. I updated the README, hope that it is clearer now. Thanks!
