I didn't come across any good ones when creating this library, but if you're using VSCode, I tried my best to make the README as beginner friendly as possible. I'm open to issues a…

I just looked through the perks on my Google One and don't see this offering. I don't see it in the premium perks either. Do you happen to have a link? Is it some kind of hidden be…
