@vscode/openssl-prebuilt

This is a public package containing static compilations of OpenSSL used in the VS Code CLI, for every platform that we publish on. It's available to install via npm as:

npm install --save @vscode/openssl-prebuilt

We use this to reduce the amount of compilation done at build time for VS Code, and we compile OpenSSL from signed sources ourselves to ensure supply chain security. This package may be pulled down automatically when building the VS Code CLI from sources, depending on your platform and configuration.
