Extension is unavailable in VSCodium #37

Just spun up my first Playdate project and this extension makes the whole development process extremely smooth, so thanks for that!

I was wondering if you'd consider publishing it to the open-vsx.org as well? I use VSCodium on Linux, which is prevented by Microsoft's terms of service from accessing Microsoft's extension marketplace. (You can hack it to do it anyway, which is how I tried this out, but it's not a great experience.) open-vsx seems to be the standard open extension repository for non-Microsoft builds of VS Code; my Linux distro has multiple different VS Code-derived packages that use it.

https://github.com/eclipse/openvsx/wiki/Publishing-Extensions has the details, but once you're set up with an account and an access token, it looks like it should be as straightforward as using ovsx publish alongside vsce publish.

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into this.

It looks like another option is to make a .vsix bundle available for download. Do you install any extensions using a .vsix?

Someday I would like to automate publishing this extension to the marketplace. As part of that, I will probably automate publishing a .vsix bundle to the GitHub releases for this repository.
