Visual Studio Code 1.50 adds official builds making this build obsolete? #134

Closed TheOtterlord closed 3 years ago

Visual Studio Code's September update (1.50) introduces official builds for ARMv7 and ARM64 architectures and as the changelog states.

"This means you can now officially use VS Code on a Raspberry Pi, Chromebook, and other ARM-based devices!" - VS Code v1.15 changelog

As far as I can see, there are no builds here that are not available on the official download page.

If this does mean the end, I would just like to thank everyone who has worked on this up until now as I've been using this build as my main editor on my Pi 4 and it's helped me so much.

Wouldn't work on my Lenovo Chromebook Duet. It's looking for a number of dependancies that have :arm64 in them. The linux beta on the duet doesn't put :arm64 so it won't install.

I got it to work but by using the tar.gz.

@rogueturnip could you share some details on how you did that?
