# Note: VS Codium is an open source licenced version of VS code
# that has all of the MS telemetry stripped out of it.
# Better for privacy and seems more stable running in docker than VS Code.

# Approach from:
# https://vscodium.com/#install
# NOTE: Newest versions of codium have broken the ability to install
#       extensions in an image of a different architecture.  For example,
#       it will not install extensions into the amd64 images when building
#       on an arm64 or vice versa...
# 
#       So this appraoch has been commented out in hopes that it will again
#       work with yet newer versions of codium in the future.
#  
#       The approach below explicitly installs a specific version of codium
#       that does not suffer from this issue.
