Looking good! I'll push up some additions between today/tomorrow. |

@code-asher I added some minor changes, fixed the filesystem thing, and added a development tour. Let me know what you think! |
`file` doesn't seem to work without a specific git reference, but adding a reference makes the explorer not follow the tour. Unfortunately `directory` doesn't show the directory contents so I added the directory name and "see the explorer" to the comment.
For now it has to be a full link but in the future it would be nice to open it relatively in the editor.

The CodeTour extension for VS Code gives users an interactive walkthrough of a codebase.
When the repo is first cloned (and the CodeTour extension is installed), a dialog appears with the option to start a tour.
Tours can be viewed, edited, and "recorded" with the extension, or through editing the
.tourfile. I have created a a basic tour, but would love input from @code-asher and others on what areas of codebase to point new contributors to.Since code-server is well-documented, perhaps this can be used as a way to show people what files are important. CodeTours can also prompt users to execute shell commands. This could be used to help with onboarding or to run tests for the first time!
