  1. vscodium

    binary releases of VS Code without MS branding/telemetry/licensing

    There is a section in the docs regarding switching back to the official extension marketplace: https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#how...

    So if there is a "killer extension" not available on codium's marketplace, you can still use it through microsoft's marketplace.

  3. openvsx

    An open-source registry for VS Code extensions

    > So to use an extension in VSCode, it has to be published in Microsoft's store?

    You can always download the extension (or build it yourself) and install it manually - using Code or Codium. You can use the Open VSX registry with Code, but you have to configure it: https://github.com/eclipse/openvsx/wiki/Using-Open-VSX-in-VS....

  4. pyright

    Static Type Checker for Python

    You can use pyright instead[0]. It is the FOSS version of pyright, but having some features missing.

  5. dotfiles

    My dotfiles (by CGamesPlay)

    I’ve started using Remote OSS [0] with some custom scripts to install and run the remote code host. Works great on remote servers and even with devcontainers on remote hosts. You can use a script like the one here to handle automatically installing and setting up the tunnel [1]. I’m working on a PR that adds a way to automatically run custom scripts to set up the tunnels as well [1].

  6. theia

    Eclipse Theia is a cloud & desktop IDE framework implemented in TypeScript.

    Eclipse runs the Open VSX registry that VS Codium uses. Eclipse also has a fork of VS Code called Theia.

  7. setup-node

    Set up your GitHub Actions workflow with a specific version of node.js

    No, PR review isn't the only thing that prevents these from being updated. In the yml it's set to a release branch. So it isn't especially fallible.
