  1. from VSCode’s main menu, select “Extensions”
  2. click to open the three-dot menu at the top of the middle panel (see screenshot above)
  3. select “Install from VSIX…” and follow the prompts :+1:

after installing, you may be prompted to reload but after that your new extension should be available for use.

cheers!
