I struggled to find how to generate a token after not doing anything
with this project for well over a year:

To get to your token creation, go here:

- https://YOUR_USER_NAME.visualstudio.com/_details/security/tokens

**Create a token:**

- Name: vsce
- Organisation: All accessible organizations
- show all scopes, select:
- Marketplace
- Check Acquire and Manage

**Publish with CLI:**

```bash
# login
vsce login
# install the things
npm i
# use the token created in earlier step
vsce package
# myExtension.vsix generated
# bump version
vsce publish minor # | major | patch
# vsce publish major, minor or patch
vsce publish -p
```

If you get `ERROR Failed request: (401)` see here:

- https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-vsce/issues/11

Some good documentation on publishing with the CLI:
