Description

Could you please advise if vscode-lean4 can work with a WSLv1 (or WSLv2) instance

E.g. I have a VS Code running in Windows, code stored in NTFS home dir C:\Users\vadim (/mnt/c/Users/vadim), but would like to have git/lean/lean language server running in my WSLv1 instance?

It appears that this is supported when I connect to Remote Host in bottom-left

but it would be nice to have this explicitly explained in README - especially in README popping up when accidentally installing the vscode-lean4 extension when not connected to Remote Host

Research direction

Start by reading the repository README and the installation guidance shown for the vscode-lean4 extension. Document whether WSLv1 and WSLv2 work when VS Code connects through Remote Host, including the described Windows and NTFS setup. The work is done when this behavior and the relevant connection requirement are explicit to new installers.
