Contributing Guide doesn't mention conflict when launching #2055

Closed jasonwilliams closed 3 months ago

Describe the bug I have been following the Contributing Guide in an attempt to look at a bug, I've noticed Run the Extension launch configuration. step doesn't work as expected

I end up with these errors: image

It looks like the source-version of this extension conflicts with the built-in version of the extension, I assume this to be the case because it works when i disable the JS Debugger.

Doing the above leads to a catch-22 problem though, disabling the JS Debugger prevents the debug option from working when launching "Extension". So i need to turn it off and on again when my debugging session has finished.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Follow https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-js-debug/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

VS Code Version: 1.92.1

Ignore this, I assume the nightly extension is needed over the normal version to not conflict
