+- **Bundled extension pack**: the extension no longer auto-installs ESLint, EditorConfig, Prettier, SFMC Language Service, and SFMC Data Loader. It is now a standalone extension.

+### Changed

+- **README**: added a "Recommended companion extensions" section pointing to the [SFMC Extension Pack](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-extension-pack) and [SFMC Extension Pack Plus](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-extension-pack-expanded), and strongly recommending at least the [SFMC Language Service](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-language) extension.

+### Recommended companion extensions
+
+This extension no longer bundles other extensions. For a complete SFMC editing experience, install one of our extension packs:
+
+- **[SFMC Extension Pack](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-extension-pack)** - SFMC Data Loader, SFMC DevTools, SFMC Language Service, and MSO Conditionals.
+- **[SFMC Extension Pack Plus](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-extension-pack-expanded)** - the same four SFMC extensions plus ESLint, Prettier, and EditorConfig for a typical SFMC project toolchain.
+
+At a minimum, we strongly recommend installing the **[SFMC Language Service](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joernberkefeld.sfmc-language)** extension for AMPscript and SSJS syntax highlighting, completions, and hover docs.
