Hi, I’d like to start creating extensions and I’m looking for some advice to help me get started to ensure I get everything I need installed correctly. I’m using Windows 10 and I found the VSCode Project for SketchUp Extension Development page on Github. After reading through its instructions, I’m …

Hi Dan, I did find that page yesterday but the content discussed makes no sense to me.

[image] Blackfrost: gem install yard-sketchup. FYI, the yard-sketchup gem is the YARD template that is used for generating local HTML documentation output that is also posted at ruby.sketchup.com website. Locally this is used by the yard doc command. The code for the template is in repositor…
