VSCode Extension Host

Panda IDE includes a full VSCode extension host that allows running real .vsix extensions on Android:

Phase	Status
Foundation (models, IPC, registry)	✅
vscode.window API	✅
vscode.workspace API	✅
vscode.languages API	✅
vscode.commands	✅
vscode.extensions / env	✅
Visual Studio Marketplace UI	✅
WebView panels	✅
SCM / Tasks / Debug	✅
CI/CD (Jest tests)	✅

Extensions are queried from the official Visual Studio Marketplace Gallery. Search results, icons, README details, changelog and VSIX download URLs come from the same Gallery response, and the app validates every download as a VSIX before installing it.

Terminal toolchain

The integrated Linux terminal exposes a repeatable setup command:

panda update

It installs or updates Git, Node.js, npm, Python, pip and common build tools inside the selected Ubuntu, Debian or Alpine guest. Use panda doctor to inspect the tools already available.

Runtimes

Install language runtimes directly from the Marketplace → Runtimes tab:

Runtime	Version
Node.js	22.x LTS
Python	3.13
Java (OpenJDK)	21 LTS
Kotlin	2.x
Clang/LLVM	21
Dart	3.x
Go	1.22
Rust	stable
Ruby	3.3
Lua	5.4
Flutter SDK	3.x stable

Icon set

Panda IDE uses the Iconsax Broken icon family. The .ttf files are bundled in assets/fonts/.
