how to update Readme.md vscode extension in vscodemarketplace?

Question

I cant update the vscode extension Readme file after publishing. Can someone help me how to update the Readme.md in vscode marketplace?

Answer 1

I don't know if this is the right way to do it or not. But you can add to your extension homepage attribute at package.json file and set its value to link of your GitHub README file.

{
    ...
    "homepage": "https://github.com/your/github/link/README.md",
    ...
}

and when you update README file then update your package at marketplace using vsce publish it will update README at marketplace.

I'm having the same problem, I've made some changes on my readme file and now I can't just update it to the vscode marketplace... I think the only way then is unpublish the extension and publish again to write the description again.
