| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>To use a VS Code extension in a Che workspace, Che needs to consume metadata describing the extension. The Che plug-ins registry is a static website publishing metadata for common VS Code extensions.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>This article describes how to publish metadata for an additional extension, not available in the Che plug-ins registry, by using the extension configuration <code>meta.yaml</code> file.</p> |
