Releasing this as an AUR package should not be too complicated. If I manage to find the time I will do a PR, in the meantime here's the issue.

I was just looking for that ... visual-studio-codium-bin would nail it 馃槀

Just FYI, I've done the following and it went up right away without issues.
Worth mentioning I already had VS Code installed so its dependencies might be necessary too.
yaourt -S --needed --noconfirm \
fontconfig libxtst gtk3 python \
cairo alsa-lib nss gcc-libs libnotify \
libxss gconf glibc debtap
sudo debtap -u
curl -LO https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/releases/download/1.26.1/code-oss_1.26.1-1535381775_amd64.deb
debtap -Q code-oss_1.26.1-1535381775_amd64.deb
yaourt -U code-oss-1.26.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
The Code - OSS app at that point will be available through the Desktop (GNOME in my case, just window/special key and type code).
It works !!! Awesome stuff

FYI, there is already a free software build of VS Code in the official repositories of Arch Linux, so this probably isn't needed (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/code/)

@MazeChaZer Does it ship with the extensions gallery enabled?

@MazeChaZer thanks for the heads up, I love that code made it officially !!! This issue can be closed.

P.S. pacman -S --needed code is all you need on ArchLinux

@WebReflection this is great news. Can you answer @Calinou's question: after installing, are you able to install extensions from the marketplace?
