Releasing 'releases' here in GH? #12
Description
Hi,
Unfortunately, when I try to install a VSCodium extension from the software itself I often get HTTP ERROR 429 (Open VSX severs are overloaded).
Until now, the trick was to go to the GH repo of the extensions, add "/releases/" to the URL, then download the .vsix file and install that.
It works for the 10s of extensions I already tried/installed (included the "sibling" of your extension: REditorSupport.r).
Unfortunately it does not work with your extension.
Could you please release your code in this repo, so that we can alleviate the load on OpenVSX servers?
Thanks in advance

@randy3k Is it something you would consider? Otherwise we could close the issue.

i love the idea, but didn't have the time to work on it.
With the current AI tools, it should be an easier task (though would still like to get some help).

The GitHub Release for the current version v0.1.4 has now been created with the
.vsixfile attached.In addition, #18 updates the GitHub Actions deploy workflow so that all future tag pushes will automatically package and attach the
.vsixfile to GitHub Releases.
