I’m in the process of giving VSCodium a test drive, and I wanted to migrate the extensions I’m using on VSCode over there.
Some VSCode extensions aren’t available on VSCodium for clear reasons, but others aren’t necessarily clear to me. The only one that I actually missed was a specific color theme; I am okay with switching editors, but switching themes would probably break my brain a bit.
On macOS, VSCode extensions are installed at ~/.vscode/extensions
. VSCodium extensions are installed at ~/.vscode-oss/extensions
. I’m assuming this is very similar on Windows and Linux. Migrating extensions between the two is easy; just copy the directory for the extension from one VSCode-based editor’s extensions folder to the other.
