Note:
Unfortunately, it does take time to get an extension approved by the micro:bit Educational Foundation before it can be searchable
by name. Part of the requirements for the approval process involves a live product page. Therefore, at the time of the launch of this
product, the extension has not been approved yet and the only method of adding the extension is to use the link to the GitHub repository
of the pxt-package. We will update this tutorial as soon as the extension has been approved.
