Developing the Extension
Pre-requisites
Visual Studio Code is a graphical code editor for Linux, macOS, and Windows. It supports extensions, including the mssql extension for querying a SQL Server instance, Azure SQL Database, an Azure SQL Managed Instance, and a database in Azure Synapse Analytics. In this quickstart, you'll use Visual Studio Code to connect to Azure SQL Database or Azure SQL Managed Instance and then run Transact-SQL. Homebrew is ranked 1st while Visual Studio Code is ranked 4th. The most important reason people chose Homebrew is: Once installed, you control Homebrew using the.brew. command. You can find packages using.brew search., install them using.brew install. and remove them using.brew uninstall. A Visual Studio Code extension for Semgrep. See Semgrep scan results inline each time you save a file; Choose which Semgrep rules you run by setting semgrep.rules in Visual Studio Code; Prerequisites. You will need to install semgrep yourself. You can do so with.

Installation
Install Visual Studio Code Using Brew

Next, use the CLI to install the VS Code extension.
Restart VS Code and the extension should be installed!
Building
If you are building the extension from source, you need to build both theextension itself and the Flow CLI (if you don't already have a version installed).Unless you're developing the extension or need access to unreleased features,you should use the Flow CLI install option (above). It's much easier!
VS Code Extension
If you haven't already, install dependencies.
Next, build and package the extension.
This will result in a .vsix
file containing the packaged extension.
Install the packaged extension.
