Use no-code VSCode integration

[remcohaszing]

Initial checklist

• I read the support docs
• I read the contributing guide
• I agree to follow the code of conduct
• I searched issues and couldn’t find anything (or linked relevant results below)

Problem

Currently we need a bunch of boilerplate code to create a client for integrating remark-language-server into this extension. This adds ~350kB of minified JavaScript.

Solution

I created feature request microsoft/vscode#158076 upstream. If it gets accepted (needs 20 👍 votes) and implemented, we can remove the client code entirely.

Alternatives

If the upstream doesn’t get accepted, we should just close this issue.

I just asked my colleagues for help.

Should we keep this open? It’s been more than a year. Might be never.

[remcohaszing]

My plan was basically:

• Wait for remark-lint releases
• Release remark-language-server
• Release vscode-remark
• Close this issue as We’ll see whenever this gets implemented.

So yeah, I’ll close it now.
