Can provide richer functions for AUR workspace.
1.Provides file type association for .SRCINFO files
2.Provides convenient operation functions, such as updpkgsums command, and graphical buttons for executing makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO command to generate .SRCINFO file
3.Provides run options, such as makepkg -si installation, clean workspace, etc.
4.Quickly create an empty AUR package repository with a sample PKGBUILD file

This extension is an excellent idea and needs to be continuously improved.

Thanks @witt-bit for the suggestions.

1.Provides file type association for .SRCINFO files

Opened as separate issue #39.

2.Provides convenient operation functions, such as updpkgsums command, and graphical buttons for executing makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO command to generate .SRCINFO file

Opened as separate issue #40.

3.Provides run options, such as makepkg -si installation, clean workspace, etc.

Opened as separate issue #41.

4.Quickly create an empty AUR package repository with a sample PKGBUILD file

I’m already maintaining a Cookiecutter template for that, cookiecutter-pkgbuild.

If you think it makes sense to integrate the Cookiecutter template with the VS Code extension, feel free to open a separate issue. I don’t think it’s a good fit, because VS Code is workspace-/folder oriented, and scaffolding templates generally work best if the workspace root doesn’t exist yet.

A simpler variant of this may be for the extension to contribute a snippet, which can be inserted into an empty PKGBUILD via the Snippets: Insert snippet command.

This extension is an excellent idea and needs to be continuously improved.

Thank you for your honest feedback.
Contributions are always welcome.
