Cannot activate the 'Redwood IDE' extension because it depends on the 'Browser Preview' extension

[BstevensG4G]

While working remotely in WSL on Windows 10 VS Code reveals this message box every time it loads a redwood project making the extension unusable. Various issues in other repositories may give clues to its resolution.
VS Code Extension wont load in remote - ssh mode. #1478

If nothing else this feature request seems like an invaluable tool for extension builders to aid in debugging
Feature: Specifying the load order of extensions (reduce startup wait-time) #46846

I'm experiencing the same issue ... any workarounds so far? 😕

Hi all. We are in between major changes and updates to the Extension. The current codebase is effectively going to be replaced, which is a great thing overall. It's still just a couple months out.

We're paying attention to these Issues and will update accordingly. Thanks for your patience!

@thedavidprice : any milestone/ETA for the major change on the extension? possibly a setting within the extension to disable the Depreciated 'Browser Preview' extension while waiting

[thedavidprice]

^^ @aldonline any way to do this with the current set up?

@am1ru1 No ETA at this time, unfortunately. Our focus is primarily on reaching the framework v1-rc
