VSCodium is the MIT core that VSCode uses, but leaves out all the Microsoft "Big Brother" tracking. When will you make available a .vsix file that works with VSCodium?
Here is the Microsoft Tracking error you get if you try to import the NXP .vxsix package currently.
I was planning to cover Codium on my blog https://mcuoneclipse.com/ (be free to subscribe up there).
The issue is (imho) more on the MS side, as the Microsoft plugins in questions are not licensed to be used outside the Microsoft world. Someone with more knowledge on that licensing issue with VS Code Extensions might add to this.
Here is how to can get it installed. The trick is that you need to download a few plugins manually and install them on the console, e.g.
codium --install-extension ms-vscode.cpptools-1.17.0.vsixYou will need the following:
- https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cpptools
- https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.vscode-embedded-tools
- https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.vscode-serial-monitor
After that, you can successfully install the NXP extension:
I hope this helps,
