Hi leafmaple,

thanks for your nand2tetris extension. It works really nice. Have you heared of codium?
The thing is, that microsoft develops vs-code in the following way:
They have a free open source project licensed under MIT license called "Code - OSS"
From this code base they build vs-code after adding proprietary extension and telemetry (data sharing).
Now for users concerned with free open source software that want the "original" MIT code editor without proprietary blobs and telemetry addons there is a repo, which uses the same code basis to build a real free alternative called "codium".

To use extensions with codium they offer an alternative marketplace
https://open-vsx.org

I would really apreciate, if you could publish your extension also on this platform, so users who are concerned about free software in the sence of freedom could enjoy using it.

For an explanation on the difference of vs-code and codium see:

Alternatively can you explain, where I can find the "*.vsix" file of your extension so I could download it and install it in the command line with "codium --install-extension xxx.vsix"

Best regards
Micha
