for adding custom extensions to VSCode, but it seems to be
now[3]. I've been using VSCode for a couple of months now(C#)
and it seems pretty good. I'm not sure how soon Microsoft will
actually get around to implementing a D extension, but it
doesn't seem like it would be very difficult to create one for
someone who already has experience with this sort of thing[4].

Sounds awesome for the community! But for me this will probably
be a real downside as we put so much work into our vscode
extension already.
In case someone didn't know: me and Wild made a D extension for
vscode supporting dub (build, run, linting) + dub.json
completion, dfmt, dscanner, dcd, DlangUI Markup Language syntax +
auto complete, SDL syntax, arsd.script syntax, jade syntax,
upload to dpaste and D snippets: https://github.com/Pure-D/code-d
