Description

I just want to use this library, as a library, not as VSCode accessory. Is that supported?

Do you need help making it useful for the community?

If you direct me towards understanding how this can be used for a browser project, I promise to make a PR for a sensible, helpful README and some use cases.

Because right now it's a total mess, like the original writer was promoted to management in 2018 or something.

Research direction

Start by reading the current README and the repository description to determine how the library is intended to be used outside VSCode. The issue asks for browser-project guidance, a clearer README, and use cases, but does not name files or tests. Done would mean documenting supported browser usage and improving the README enough to make those use cases understandable.
