Codecarbon extension
This extension allows you to track the carbon emissions of your code directly from your VsCode. It uses the CodeCarbon package to estimate the carbon emissions of your code.
Features
Track the carbon emissions of your code directly from your VsCode.
Start and stop the emissions tracking with a simple click.
Save it into a csv file for further analysis.
Requirements
The extension uses codecarbon to measure the carbon emissions. This package connects to your hardware via specific APIs to get to know the power usage of your CPU/GPU/RAM. These APIs depend on the brand and OS. See https://mlco2.github.io/codecarbon/methodology.html#power-usage for the needed tools for your specific setup.
Note: if you do not install the requirements, codecarbon will track in fallback mode.
