Delta — VS Code Extension

Launches the Delta TUI directly inside VS Code's integrated terminal.

Workflow

workspace root
├── justfile / Makefile   ← build automation
└── vscode-extension/
    └── bin/
        └── delta.exe     ← populated by `just build`

Build the binary + extension in one step

# Preferred (requires `just`)
just package

# Fallback
make package

just build alone is enough to get delta.exe in place for testing.

Test without packaging

1. Open the vscode-extension/ folder in VS Code
2. Run npm install then press F5 — an Extension Development Host opens
3. Hit Ctrl+Alt+D or search "Launch Delta" in the command palette

Distribute

just package          # produces delta-0.1.0.vsix

Share the .vsix — recipients install it via
Extensions panel → ··· → Install from VSIX…
