Description

The docs indicate that you can develop in vscode by using the live server extension.

I agree that pyscript.com is an excellent resource but I would appreciate some specific docs on how to setup vscode to work with pyscript.
Specifically:

  • there are a lot of python plugins for vscode but some are old or not so good. Which ones are ideal for pyscript dev
  • what's the proper config for pyscript and the live server extension
  • perhaps later, when we have github to pyscript.com migration, that workflow would be included.

I.e. If you're new to vscode - because you're a python programmer - a simple set of starting instructions we can point to on the discord server to help people get started.

Research direction

Start with the linked beginning-PyScript documentation and review how it currently describes using VS Code with the Live Server extension. Add a focused setup guide covering suitable Python plugins, the required PyScript and Live Server configuration, and the initial workflow; done means new VS Code users can follow the instructions to begin development.
