A simple tool to download `.vsix` files directly from any Visual Studio Code extension URL.
⚡ Features
Paste a VS Code extension link
Click "Download"
Instantly fetches the `.vsix` file from the Marketplace
📦 How to Use
Open `index.html` in your browser (no install needed)
Paste the VS Code Marketplace extension URL (e.g., `https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python`)
Hit the Download button
Done 🎉 — your `.vsix` file will start downloading
🧠 Why This Exists
Sometimes you wanna sideload VS Code extensions offline — for example:
Working in remote/dev containers where Marketplace isn't accessible
Using VS Code forks (like VSCodium) that don’t support the full Marketplace or lack certain extensions
You just wanna stash a `.vsix` for backup or manual install
This tool makes it super easy without needing the VS Code CLI or Marketplace access from within the app.
