Certainly! Creating a well-detailed README is crucial for your Visual Studio Code extension, as it helps users understand what your extension does, how to use it, and any other relevant information. Here's a template you can use as a starting point:
The VSCode Prevent Copy-Paste extension is a productivity tool for developers working in Visual Studio Code. It addresses the common challenge of accidental code leakage by preventing developers from copying and pasting code outside the current workspace.
-
Enhanced Security: Protect your codebase by restricting the copying and pasting of sensitive information outside the project's workspace, reducing the risk of unintentional data exposure.
-
Code Consistency: Encourage developers to maintain code integrity within the designated project, promoting a consistent coding style and structure.
-
Workspace Focus: Keep developers focused on the task at hand by discouraging the use of copied code from unrelated projects or external sources.
-
Developer Awareness: The extension notifies users with an information message when activated, ensuring developers are aware of the restriction and fostering a more conscious coding environment.
-
Easy Integration: Seamlessly integrate the extension into your development workflow with a simple installation process and minimal configuration. It works automatically within the current workspace.
Improve your team's coding practices and enhance the security of your projects with the VSCode Prevent Copy-Paste extension.
