Requires Node.js 22 or newer (see .nvmrc); npm 10+ ships with it.
npm ci # install dependencies
npm run build # lint, typecheck, optimise SVGs, rebuild the icon font
npm test # compile and run the suite inside a downloaded VS Code
Useful individual scripts:
| Script | What it does |
|---|---|
npm run lint / lint:fix | ESLint (flat config, eslint.config.mjs) |
npm run typecheck | tsc --noEmit |
npm run format / format:check | Prettier |
npm run svgo-p | Optimise the product icons in Pro-icons/ |
npm run svgo-mf | Optimise the file/folder icons in icons/ |
npm run fonts | Rebuild the icon font via fantasticon (.fantasticonrc.js) |
npm run preview | Regenerate the file/folder icon preview images |
npm run package | Build a .vsix |
The icon font's codepoints live in src/scripts/template/mapping.json and must
stay in sync with the fontCharacter values in
product_icons/developer's-icons.json — changing a codepoint swaps glyphs for
everyone who already has the theme installed.
Running
npm testfrom the VS Code integrated terminal? VS Code exportsELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE=1, which makes the downloaded test instance refuse every launch flag. Runenv -u ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE npm testinstead.
