Warning — looking for a maintainer
This extension is no longer maintained. I'm sorry, it's not you, it's me. I still love this functionality, I've just moved to a different editor to get it.
I don't want to leave you in the lurch, but I find it somewhat difficult to spend much time on an extension for an editor I no longer use.
That said, while I may not be planning on doing any work myself, I will gladly accept PRs. New functionality? Bug fix? Don't let me stop you: PR!
LaTeX Utilities
An add-on to the vscode extension LaTeX Workshop that provides some fancy features that are less vital to the basic experience editing a LaTeX document, but can be rather nice to have.
The feature should continue to expand at a gradually decreasing rate.
Got an idea? Make a PR!

Telemetry
Why
As a bunch of fancy, but non-essential features, it can be hard to know what features users actually derive value from.
In adding telemetry to this extension I hope to get an idea of this, and inform future development efforts.
It should also be possible to report errors in the background, and so I also hope this extension will be more stable as a result.
At the moment I'm just logging when one of the main features is used.
TLDR; I want to get around the 1% rule
I hate telemetry, go away!
You probably have disabled vscode's telemetry.enableTelemetry then, in which case no telemetry is done.
