Proposed API Sample

This sample demonstrates usage of Proposed API.

The postinstall script uses vscode-dts dev && vscode-dts main to download latest version of vscode.d.ts and vscode.proposed.<proposalName>.d.ts from the main branch of microsoft/vscode.

You can read more about vscode-dts at: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-dts.
