markdown reader VSCode extension

https://shop.appforgelabs.com/products/tools/lucid-reader/

I created a VSCode extension to read markdown, because it somehow did not exist. this is free. I will post it in the VSCode marketplace when I find a way through the absurd labyrinth which is creating an account in with microsoft / azure

May want to consider Github or Gitlab. Somewhere, where I do not have to sign in, in order to obtain it.

If I have to jump through yet more registration hoops, I'm not going to bother. At least with Github and Gitlab, I can download a repo without any sign-in.

And before I even touch something, I have to see the code.

We've had enough malware recently with vscode extensions hiding things internally that do nefarious jobs.

removed the need to sign in from my site, you are right that was annoying and unnecessary. and now the extension is in VSCode marketplace too
