Jon Ross-Perkins 977578add1 Update icons for slightly better sizing (#5013)
Changes utils/vscode/images/icon.png to 256x256 (["The path to the icon
of at least 128x128 pixels (256x256 for Retina
screens)."](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/extension-manifest#fields)),
and updates the favicon.png to use the same source image.

For reference, changing this to:

https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/16V_E_LS7zqZu6VkNdZgIMqSwc96eV_fw98nIYoY1bBg/edit

The image changes slightly because I don't recall my prior source (and
it didn't seem important to precisely match font size), but hopefully
the drawing helps.

Carbon Language

This extension provides support for the Carbon Language.

This extension is currently experimental, and being developed alongside Carbon.

Quickstart

  1. Download and install a carbon release.
    • By default, the extension will look for carbon under ./bazel-bin. This is for developers actively working on Carbon and running VS Code inside a carbon-lang clone.
  2. Install the Carbon Language extension.
  3. Configure the installed path to carbon.

Configuration

The configuration is under carbon.*. At present, the only configuration is the path to the carbon binary. This looks like:

"carbon.carbonPath": "/path/to/carbon"

Communication

See Carbon's collaboration systems. We're most active on Discord and have a #editor-integrations channel. We'll also respond to questions on GitHub Discussions.

Documentation

Carbon currently only has project-level documentation. See the GitHub repository.
