Description

Some of the debug adapters implementations are restricted to be used only in editors supported/implemented by Microsoft. It will be useful to mention that in the implementors page. It would be good to mention also if there are runtime dependency on vscode. FTR the corresponding implementors page for LSP excludes such implementations (point 2 from https://langserver.org/ : Be editor-agnostic for language servers or language-agnostic for clients )
