I am building aurelia v1 solutions with VS code and I noticed that the VS code extension [aurelia - Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AureliaEffect.aurelia) is supposed to give me intellisense in the html file but I see none. Should it only work in v2 or am I doing something wrong?

There is also an excellent refactor feature the works in the typescript files but that does not update the same references in the HTML-files, what needs to be done to get that to work?

When building the solution I get build time errors/warnings in the TypesScript code but nothing on the HTML-templates. Is there any tool I can add to get that to work?

If there is work to be done to get any of the above to work I am happy to help.

Maybe create an issue here to discuss what the actionable items are? [https://github.com/aurelia/vscode-extension](https://github.com/aurelia/vscode-extension)

Hey @magnusdanielson ,

is it possible for you to tell me more about your project structure?  
The [Usage section](https://github.com/aurelia/vscode-extension#1-usage) has some points on that.

Also can you check the Output (invoke command → Output: Focus on output view-\> Aurelia v2) in VSCode?  
This is my output for a v1 project
