Can someone point me to a tutorial on how to properly use VSCODE with a PG project so that the code I do in VSCODE doesn’t get constantly overwritten? I like Mr. Pine cone for making blocks, but the capabilities of cursor and disc have their advantages, but I don’t like the confusing messages that constantly pop up taht don’t explain what is about to happen when I hit save. ---

After trying many different things, I would not recommend using VScode/cursor except to make updates after you are done working on the file with PG. I have found it’s better to just paste code into claude/your AI of choice and then update it in Pinegrow. The sync does not work well and typically gets overwritten or causes ugly conflicts. ---

How did you set it up @smgitner, I haven’t had any issues using it.
