+
+clone the repo with the source code you want to use
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/extension_name
+```
+
+Once in there, run npm install to make sure you have all dependencies:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+Finally Use vsce to compile the .vsix file you'll need:
+
+```bash
+vsce package
