Title: ❗ CodeRoad Tutorial Stuck — No Restart Option, Sidebar Icon Missing, and Commands Not Found
Environment:
Steps to Reproduce:
- Opened VS Code inside a Docker dev container.
- Installed CodeRoad extension via
.vsix (Marketplace access failed).
- Started the "Learn Bash" tutorial using the URL above.
- Got stuck mid-way (e.g., at
pwd step).
- Tried to reset or restart the tutorial — failed. No new tutorial prompt shown.
Observed Behavior:
-
CodeRoad: Open Tutorial command is not available.
-
Sidebar icon is missing even after successful install.
-
Restarting the tutorial doesn't work — stuck at the same previous step.
-
Manually removing .coderoad.json didn’t help.
-
Initial error:
-
However, running node -v manually gives v18.20.8.
Troubleshooting Done:
- Restarted VS Code and container.
- Reinstalled the CodeRoad extension.
- Tried both Marketplace and manual install.
- Deleted
.coderoad.json to reset state.
- Switched between local VS Code and container.
- Copied
.vsix via docker cp to container (beautiful_curie).
Expected Behavior:
- Ability to cleanly restart or start a new CodeRoad tutorial.
- Sidebar icon for CodeRoad consistently shown after install.
CodeRoad: Open Tutorial always available in Command Palette.
- Better support or guidance for container-based usage.
Suggestions:
- Add a "Reset Tutorial" option.
- Improve support for dev containers.
- Ensure full tutorial reset is possible without reinstalling.
- Provide fallback for code-server in containers.
Question:
- How can I fully reset and relaunch a CodeRoad tutorial inside a container or local VS Code without reinstalling everything?
