So I'm new to this project. Do I ask if I can be assigned this bug? Or is it whoever submits an solution first makes the pull request?

[Harry-Hopkinson]

You can ask, I am currently working on this now - but you can try as well.

[DASchechtman]

Alright thanks. So in general I can just work on a problem that catches my attention and ask/answer questions when appropriate?

[Harry-Hopkinson]

Yes pretty much, you can work on any problem or issue that you would like.

[DASchechtman]

What specifically is the bug here? Is the desired behavior where when you type [text](<|>) a list of path links should appear?

[mjbvz]

Yes, it should work the same way it does if you remove the <> from the link

One extra note: spaces should not be encoded inside <> links so for extra points make accepting a file suggestion with spaces in the name inserts a real space instead of %20

[DASchechtman]

How do I recompile typescript files so vscode reflects the changes I made? Is it yarn watch or Ctrl + Shift + B?

[DASchechtman]

Is this the behavior you were looking for?
