Script Buttons for VSCode

Make running custom scripts easier!

Features

When a package.json file is detected in the current workspace folder a button is created on the status bar for each script. When this button is clicked it runs the script in a terminal. Only 1 instance of each script can run at a given time.

Scripts can also be loaded in from a script-buttons.json file. Npm scripts will be white whereas non-npm scripts will be grey.
