Development Setup

When running for the first time, the extension needs the emitted webview/index.js file to exist, so compile it first:

npm run compile:webview

When making changes to the webview/, make sure to recompile before rerunning the extension too:

npm run compile:webview

Then as usual, open src/extension.ts and run the command Debug: Start Debugging (F5) to launch the extension locally in the Extension Development Host.
