How to enable easy installation of an ipywidget as jupyter extension

[paddymul]

My project - Buckaroo works in VSCode notebooks last I checked. I'm trying to figure out what is necessary to make it installable as a VSCode from the VSCode extension marketplace. I see a lot of examples of extensions that are only TS/JS, but my extension requires python to run too.

Currently installing via VSCode requires a couple extra steps if I remember correctly. I would like to be a first class extension, and to be able to test the installed packaged via CI... All of this generally works for regular vscode extensions.

Are there any simple examples of this?

Have you looked at the Python extension source? https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python
