Code OSS and Github Copilot, or any missing extension | A bit worn hat πŸ‘’

It’s been a while since I started using Manjaro with Code OSS and I love it! Code OSS is fully open source, where Microsoft VS Code comes with an additional closed-source software. More details here, but long story short, because of this difference, we may not be able to install all the extensions directly via the Code OSS (the catch is the product.json file). Github Copilot is one of them!. Luckily, we can install any extension we want via the code cli command or via CTRL + P.

Since you're using Manjaro, an Arch based distro, there is no need to go through all this pain when you can just install code-marketplace from AUR. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/code-marketplace

thanks, didn't know about it! It would be undoubtedly more convenient than the manual install, because you need to repeat it every time there's a new version
