Getting started

Note: Demo Time works not only in Visual Studio Code, but also in any code editor built on top of Visual Studio Code (such as Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Codespaces, and other VS Code derivatives).

To get started with Demo Time, you need to install the extension in Visual Studio Code. You can find the extension in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace.

You can install the extension via the following link:

Install the extension

Or you can search for “Demo Time” in the extensions panel in Visual Studio Code.

Watch the video

Watch the video to learn more about why Demo Time was created and how it can help you.

Initialize the extension

Once you have installed the extension, it is time to initialize it in your project where you want to use it. You can do this by opening the explorer panel in Visual Studio Code. There should be a Demo Time view available in which you find the Initialize button.

Once you clicked on the Initialize button, the extension will create a .demo folder in your workspace with a demo.json file.

Tip

You can change the demo.json filename to any other name you prefer. The extension will still recognize it. You can also create multiple files if you want to split your demos.
