Feature Request: Support SynthWave '84 in the `github.dev` and `vscode.dev` web editors

Open unrealapex opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Often times than not, I'm usually contributing code using Microsoft/GitHub's new online VS Code web editors(github.dev and vscode.dev) and they're useful, but because of their limitations some extensions require to be configured for them to be support in the web editors. Unfortunately, this extension falls under this category: image

It would be nice to see support for this theme in the web editors. FYI: Microsoft has documentation(here and here)on how to make extensions be supported for the web.

This fork seems to support the web version, so maybe there's something that can be learned from how they supported web editors. 🤞 https://github.com/webrender/synthwave-x-fluoromachine

That's a good start. I'm pretty sure one if the reasons Synthwave isn't supported is because the glow effect requires modification of VS Code's files which probably isn't possible for the web editors because it would require local file access.

@robb0wen Would it be very complicated to split out the glow or somehow compile a js that's exposed through the browser key that doesn't use the glow?

I would definitely like a web version that doesn't use the glow. I'm using the web IDE provided by my GitLab instance. I love the color theme even without the glow, it's a shame I can't use it.
