VS Code

Visual Studio Code is a lightweight but powerful source code editor. Protocol Launcher allows you to generate deep links to open and configure resources in Visual Studio Code.

Usage

There are two ways to use this library:

• On-Demand import from subpaths enables tree-shaking and keeps bundles small.
• Full Import from the root package is convenient but includes all app modules.

Pick On-Demand for production builds; Full Import is fine for quick scripts or demos.
