## Extensions
At the moment we can't use the official VS Code Marketplace. We've created a
custom extension marketplace focused around open-sourced extensions. However,
you can manually download the extension to your extensions directory. It's also
possible to set your own marketplace URLs by setting the `SERVICE_URL` and
`ITEM_URL` environment variables.
code-server does not provide access to the official
[Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/vscode). Instead,
Coder has created a custom extension marketplace that we manage for open-source
extensions. If you want to use an extension with code-server that we do not have
in our marketplace please look for a release in the extensions repository,
contact us to see if we have one in the works or, if you build an extension
locally from open source, you can copy it to the `extensions` folder. If you
build one locally from open-source please contribute it to the project and let
us know so we can give you props! If you have your own custom marketplace, it is
possible to point code-server to it by setting the `SERVICE_URL` and `ITEM_URL`
environment variables.
## Telemetry
Use the `--disable-telemetry` flag to completely disable telemetry. We use the
data collected to improve code-server.
