Sorry to hear that, usually the issue is directly logged to the 
developer tools (Ctrl-Shift-P -> Toggle Developer Tools) which 
you can just send in as issue on https://github.com/Pure-D/code-d 
if it is broken. It should always have basic auto completion for 
the current file and project auto completion for dub projects 
(but not sub packages) as well as linting the file when saving 
and even showing build errors when using dub. If it can't find 
the D import directory (std, core) then it should also show a 
warning to you so I don't really know what went wrong without the 
log. In the next big version update the log will be easier to 
access by the output tab in vscode.
