Is there any way to “attach” the VSCode extension to an emulator already running in the terminal? ---

@pdahlberg I don’t think that is possible yet, but you should create an issue in the vscode repo for it! [GitHub - onflow/vscode-flow: The Visual Studio Code extension for Flow](https://github.com/onflow/vscode-flow) ---

Thanks @pdahlberg! I’ve been thinking about this use case lately. We’ve started putting more work into the VS Code extension, so expect to see some updates over the next few weeks
