🎄 Christmas Notice ☃️

This project started on 3 Dec 2016. Now 5 years later, it has become a native feature in VSCode.

This extension has seen wilder success then I could over ever dreamed of, with over 10M+ downloads.

However since native functionality is available, it's time to deprecate this extension
