Description

I noticed that a lot of the functions of full VSCode are disabled, but the buttons / menus / keyboard shortcuts to open them are still visible. If it's not too difficult, it might make sense to hide or remove:

  • "Run" (debugger"
  • Extensions
  • Source Control (unless you can actually connect this to real Github somehow?)
  • Terminal
  • Debug Console
  • Problems (probably? I think you can't have Problems without a language server or extensions)

and anything else I'm not thinking of that can't actually be implemented.

Research direction
Look in the github1s repository for the UI components corresponding to the activity bar and menu items (e.g., in src/vs/workbench/browser/parts/activitybar). Consider using CSS or configuration to hide or disable these elements. Check if upstream VS Code has similar patterns for disabling built in features.
