Allow Extensions to contribute User Profile Templates #224725

Open guyutongxue opened 1 month ago

Seems that currently all User Profile Templates shown here are built-in predefined templates. image

It would be better if a vscode extension can contribute some custom user profile templates. This feature can also combine with "extension pack" that not only shares extensions but also some useful settings, tasks, etc.

Btw this could be an alternative suggestion to #181553 . Because we can now install extensions by CLI and if we allow a extension to provide profile template, it will be easier to deploy profiles in those scenario.

Fair request, but not something we have on the immediate plan. The open question is how would those extensions "ship" the profile. Would it come with the extension, or would it have to be hosted somewhere.

I would expect to have them shipped with the extension.
