Description
The ARB editor extension provides language support for ARB files used for translating Flutter apps.
Since VS Code has removed recommending extensions based on file extension we should consider showing a notification when a Flutter developer opens an ARB file offering to install the extension.
Something like:
The ARB Editor extension can help with editing '.arb' files
[Install Extension] [Don't Show Again]
If the user does not interact with the notification at all (because they might not have noticed it and VS Code hides it after ~10s) we could re-show it only after some snooze period.
It should be shown:
- only if the extension is not already installed
- only if we have detected a Dart or Flutter project
(Dart doesn't currently use ARB files? @mosuem)
Questions:
- How long should we snooze before showing it again if not interacted with?
- Should we show it some maximum number of times and then give up (eg. if a user keeps ignoring it, perhaps they expect us to stop asking?)
