Great extension for VSCode and [video](https://forum.makecode.com/t/vs-code-day-makecode-arcade-extension-video/19449)!

But just to understand correctly:

1. _This extension is only for Arcade projects, and not micro:bit, Minecraft and other editors, right?_ (At least the simulator and build for hardware stuff?)  
  
2. The extension description text states: “_Code, create pixel art, and play your game in **both native VS Code and** [vscode.dev](https://insiders.vscode.dev/makecode)!_”, but when I try to start the simulator and run some imported game project in [vscode.dev](https://insiders.vscode.dev/makecode) and github.dev with the extension loaded (and once again after a restart), I get:

_Am I doing something wrong?_  
(The online editors builds projects for hardware using the extension, though.)
