With this information VS Code can show the command in the command palette. It doesn’t yet need to load the plugin. -* `src/extension.ts` - this is the main file where you will provide the implementation of your command. - * The file exports one function, `activate`, which is called the very first time your extension is activated (in this case by executing the command). Inside the `activate` function we call `registerCommand`. - * We pass the function containing the implementation of the command as the second parameter to `registerCommand`. - -## Get up and running straight away - -* Press `F5` to open a new window with your extension loaded. -* Run your command from the command palette by pressing (`Ctrl+Shift+P` or `Cmd+Shift+P` on Mac) and typing `Hello World`. -* Set breakpoints in your code inside `src/extension.ts` to debug your extension. -* Find output from your extension in the debug console. - -## Make changes - -* You can relaunch the extension from the debug toolbar after changing code in `src/extension.ts`. -* You can also reload (`Ctrl+R` or `Cmd+R` on Mac) the VS Code window with your extension to load your changes. - -## Explore the API - -* You can open the full set of our API when you open the file `node_modules/@types/vscode/index.d.ts`. - -## Run tests - -* Open the debug viewlet (`Ctrl+Shift+D` or `Cmd+Shift+D` on Mac) and from the launch configuration dropdown pick `Extension Tests`. -* Press `F5` to run the tests in a new window with your extension loaded. -* See the output of the test result in the debug console. -* Make changes to `src/test/suite/extension.test.ts` or create new test files inside the `test/suite` folder. - * The provided test runner will only consider files matching the name pattern `**.test.ts`. - * You can create folders inside the `test` folder to structure your tests any way you want. - -## Go further - -* [Follow UX guidelines](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/ux-guidelines/overview) to create extensions that seamlessly integrate with VS Code's native interface and patterns. - * Reduce the extension size and improve the startup time by [bundling your extension](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/bundling-extension). - * [Publish your extension](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/publishing-extension) on the VS Code extension marketplace. - * Automate builds by setting up [Continuous Integration](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/continuous-integration).
