 You can always install using the downloads (deb, rpm, tar) on the [releases page](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/releases), but you can also install using your favorite package manager and get automatic updates. [@paulcarroty](https://github.com/paulcarroty) has set up a repository with instructions [here](https://gitlab.com/paulcarroty/vscodium-deb-rpm-repo). Any issues installing VSCodium using your package manager should be directed to that repository's issue tracker.

 Please note that some Visual Studio Code extensions have licenses that restrict their use to the official Visual Studio Code builds and therefore do not work with VSCodium. See [this note](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#proprietary-debugging-tools) on the Docs page for what's been found so far and possible workarounds.
 
 ### How are the VSCodium binaries built?
-If you would like to see the commands we run to build `vscode` into VSCodium binaries, have a look at the workflow files in `.github/workflow` (for Linux and macOS builds) and the `win32-build.yml` file (for Windows builds). These build files call all the other scripts in the repo. If you find something that doesn't make sense, feel free to ask about it [on Gitter](https://gitter.im/VSCodium/Lobby).

 The builds are run every day, but exit early if there isn't a new release from Microsoft.
