Quoting from the README:

> The entire VSCode workbench - editor, terminal, extensions, themes, keybindings — ported to run on a native shell.

but also

> Many workbench features are stubbed or partially implemented

So which is it? The README needs to be clearer about what is aspirational, what is done, and what is out of scope. Right now it just looks like an LLM soup.

The first sentence is aspirational, while the second is describing current state.
See I thought that, but then in the putatively aspirational section it says

> 5,600+ TypeScript files from VSCode's source, ported and adapted

which doesn't really make sense as a goal?

Hey Creator of Sidex, I just updated the Read me to be alot clearer would love your feedback on it to help clear the air
