I'm not that experienced with javascript, but I think I should be able to get some stuff done. You could also utlize some code from the existing LaTeX workshop extension ( https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop ), since it features a pdf preview with working synctex.
that looks horribly complex and over the top (hard to maintain too)

i prefer just calling the tools (mtxrun etc) as they do most of the work 
already (running, checking, helpinfo) but what is currently lacking from 
vscode is filetype bound runners (last time i checked) ... i just wait 
till that support shows up (i might have missed something recent)

the main reason for me to look into vscode is that it is 'the fashion' 
and works ok and is able to support the kind of lexing (syntax 
highlighting) that i need (which in turn also determines how my files 
look and)

(who actually uses very little features of editors as he can't remember 
all these features anyway so i stick to mastering those that help me most)
