This piece of advice from 'custom css' extension was very usefull and should be added to your README for this project (see below):

HOW TO CHANGE OWNER OF VSCODE FOLDER

sudo chown -R $(whoami) <Path to Code> The placeholder means the path to VSCode installation. It is typically:

/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron, on MacOS; /Applications/Visual Studio Code - Insiders.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron, on MacOS when using Insiders branch; /usr/share/code, on most Linux; /opt/visual-studio-code/ on Arch Linux. Mac and Linux package managers may have customized installation path. Please double check your path is correct.

For some reason, on my installation of arch it's on usr/lib/code

this should be on the readme.
