Support VSCodium?

[GrimPixel]

Hi. I am currently creating a list of programs supporting Anki. If your extension is in VSCodium marketplace, I would put it on the list. How do you think? https://polyglotclub.com/wiki/Language/Multiple-languages/Culture/FLOSS-programs-with-Anki-support

I don't know what supporting VSCodium entails, do we need to do anything?

You can always download the extension and install it from the vsix

OK, cool. Thanks for the mentioning. It would be great if it is in the VSCodium market as well.

Hi @jasonwilliams, as far as I can see, the easiest way would be to add your extension to the ovsx marketplace. You could integrate this into your release workflow. To do that, you would have to

• make an account with the eclipse foundation (you will need this to sign the publisher agreement for ovsx)
• sign the publisher agreement (probably a "don't sue us and don't distribute malware" kind of deal, but I haven't read it, and you need to decide if you're comfortable with that) (you will need this to create an API token)
• sign in to open-vsx you can use your github account for this
• create an API token
• add the token to your ci secrets, and add boilerplate to your workflow, (probably optionally) install the ovsx package with npm i ovsx
• lastly, add a call like npx ovsx publish -p $newtoken to your workflow

That should do it, I think. Would be great if you found the time, and thanks for working on this extension!
