### Documentation
For more information on getting all the telemetry disabled and tips for migrating from Visual Studio Code to VSCodium, have a look at this [Docs](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md) page.
### Extension Licensing
### Extensions and the Marketplace
According to the VS Code Marketplace [Terms of Use](https://aka.ms/vsmarketplace-ToU), _you may only install and use Marketplace Offerings with Visual Studio Products and Services._ For this reason, VSCodium uses [open-vsx.org](https://open-vsx.org/), an open source registry for VS Code extensions. See the [Extensions + Marketplace](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#extensions-marketplace) section on the Docs page for more details.
Please note that some Visual Studio Code extensions have licenses that restrict their use to the official Visual Studio Code builds and therefore do not work with VSCodium. See [this note](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#proprietary-debugging-tools) on the Docs page for what's been found so far and possible workarounds.
