VSCodium support
Can you elaborate on what changes you'd like to see? Are you suggesting an "Open in VSCodium" button?
@jschr: Actually, clicking on “Open With VSCode” does absolutely nothing when having VSCodium installed. I think this is what @f-x1-1 means, and what I also missing.
Gotcha, thanks. Do the "Install" buttons on the VSCode Marketplace work with VSCodium?
If they do then I should be able to support them as well and will re-open this issue.
Short answer: No.
But that's not as simple : If you have vscode installed, and use a browser allowing selecting any application for a specific protocol handler you should define vscodium as the default app for the vscode: links.
Then clicking on Install on marketplace should work.
If you have only vscodium and no vscode installed, then nothing happens.
But there is a workaround : You just have to copy the Install button link and replace the vscode: protocol handler to the vscodium: one and then the extension opens in vscodium.
With vscodethemes.com this solution does not work because the VS Code button does not provide any vscode: link
I have discovered a way to install Visual Studio Code extensions and themes without any issues: by downloading the extension file from vscode store and installing it directly. This installation method is not widely known.
I'm also interested in seeing VSCodium be supported. Was there a reason this issue was closed? I am also aware you can install plugins via a vsix file but would prefer some form of native support.
I'm not sure if it's possible to support an "Open in VSCodium" button yet. I'd guess that it would need to support it's own vscode: protocol to open extensions. I had hoped that it would "just work" if you only have VSCodium installed, not VSCode.
Re-opening this until we have a definitive answer.
