@bjayakumar - per step 1 of the Getting Started doc you need to be on the current Insiders build of VSCode (i.e. 1.34). Or wait a couple of weeks until 1.34 is expected to ship.

My bad. I installed insiders but then I opened the stable version to install the extension. Thanks

I still get the error for the official 1.34 version

My bad. It wasn't dependent on 1.34 but rather on Insiders. My guess is these extensions use APIs that aren't yet finalized. So you'll still need to use Insiders (currently 1.35).
