How does this extension relate to VS17.5 feature for .http/.rest files? #39

I have used the VS Code extension Rest Client by Huachao Mao and was looking for the VS Studio alternative, which is this extension. And now I found that in VS17.5 this is build in: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/visual-studio-2022-17-5-released/#api

Are these VS efforts at all related? The format of the .http file appears to be similar; is there a common specification that can be followed to enable interoperability with the VS Code extension, the VS Extension and VS itself?

Looks like this extension is superseded by the built-in functionality. Attempting to update the extension beyond VS17.5 results in an error:
