Shows an image inside a webview, maximized to its width. But more importantly, there's also left and right arrow buttons to switch the image to another image in the same folder, sequentially ordered by filename.
Sometimes I do things like translating images or make edits following instructions in some image file and I want to view those series of images in a side panel. Pulling other image files from the explorer tree to that panel is a hassle every time so I figure I'll let a chevron arrow button do the job for me this time.
This extension considers the following formats to be image files: png, jpg, jpeg, gif, svg, webp, bmp. I haven't tested for them all, though 😅
npm install to install dependencies and then ./node_modules/@vscode/vsce/vsce package to make it into a VSIX package.
