Publish to OpenVSX

[electriquo]

Hi there @ProfJordan 👋
Please publish this extension and the styling one to the Open VSX Registry.

Context

Unfortunately, as Microsoft prohibits usages of the Microsoft marketplace by any other products or redistribution of .vsix files from it, in order to use VS Code extensions in non-Microsoft products, I kindly ask that you take ownership of the VS Code extension namespace in Open VSX and publish this extension on Open VSX.

What is Open VSX? Why does it exist?

The Open VSX Registry is a vendor neutral alternative to the MS marketplace used by most other derivatives of VS Code like VSCodium, Gitpod, OpenVSCode, Theia based IDEs, and so on.

How can you publish to Open VSX Registry?

The docs to publish an extension can be found here. This process is straightforward and shouldn't take too long. Essentially, you need an authentication token and to execute the command ovsx publish to publish your plugin or - not suggested - upload that via web interface.

Note:
You could also use a GitHub action that allows publishing to Open VSX and the Microsoft Marketplace, HaaLeo/publish-vscode-extension does this nicely, just "install", then setup necessary tokens an when you want to do a release just create and push a tag.
