How to open vscodium from terminal in linux

I started to use VSCODIUM instead VSCODE cause i want to open source code from my workspace

VSCODIUM is good but i want to start it from terminal, or better, from my file manage "Dolphin"

I searched and o found that the step to start VSCODIUM from terminal is like VSCODE, then:

codium .

but it does not work

Solution

  • From the docs of Codium.

    In MacOS/Windows, go to VisualStudioCode and type CMD/crtl + p, then > and search for "Shell Command: Install 'codium' command in PATH", it will prompt for authorization to configure it within your system, authorize it and you're done.

    For Linux, check out this:

    When the archive VSCodium-linux--.tar.gz is extracted, the main entry point for VSCodium is ./bin/codium.

    then you should be able to create a shortcut (better called symlink) to link that command to a shorter command as 'codium'. You can find how to do it in this link.
