What a VS Code verified publisher badge means, compared with Open VSX →
Lint stylesheets against the success criteria WCAG 2.2 added in 2023 - target size 2.5.8, focus not obscured 2.4.11, focus appearance 2.4.13 - with the SC number on every finding.
Daily readings on both stores, taken by us. As of 25 Sept 2026.
Each bar is one day’s change in the store’s own counter. Open VSX counts a download on every update, so a day includes updates by people who already had it.
Positions observed daily on both stores. Neither store publishes this, and the two run separate search engines over separate catalogues.
