LSP support for FeatureScript?
Adding support for LSP and importing other scripts which are hosted remotely would allow for using tools like VS Code which supports LSP with many other languages. An extension for VS Code would also be very powerful. Any integrations which are currently supported by the web-based editor could be adapted to work through VS Code extensions. It would be possible to work with Onshape in a browser window and VS Code next to it as a rapid workflow which is able to get all of the IDE features from VS Code to compliment what Onshape does. A VS Code extension could also automatically import all of the dependencies needed for a script.
Has this been considered?

Its technically possible to use an external editor, but I believe Onshape wants to prioritize making their own editor better.
A helpful topic might be: what are you looking for in VS Code that the current fs IDE doesn't have?
Custom FeatureScript and Onshape Integrated Applications
Would love to use FS within VS.
Not having AI powered IntelliSense is tedious.
