Completely rewritten patch with correct implementation of transparency for electron window!
It actually running from compiled binaries! No need for electron dependency!
No conflicting with official release! You can have installed both!
Added support for official marketplace!
Added support for flags configuration file!
Added support for Wayland!
Unblocked proprietary features!

How to change window color?

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    //Black window color with 75% transparency (#RRGGBBAA)
    "window.background": "#000000BF"
},

..assuming you have a customized theme with all other transparent elements!

Building within clean chroot!

You can build package in completely clean environment without conflicting with any local dependencies (latest nodejs package etc..)!

Execute the following commands inside the package directory:

yes | sudo pacman -S devtools
extra-x86_64-build -c && rm *.log
mapfile -t _pkgs <<< "$(printf '%s\n' code-translucent-*.pkg.tar.zst | sort -Vr)"
sudo pacman -U "${_pkgs[0]}"

..or just run "build-with-chroot.sh" script!

I love the transparency patches, and I know this is also a problem with the original code package, but unfortunately this just isn't compilable, because it uses nodejs-lts-dubnium instead of nodejs, and because they conflict, I can't install nodejs-lts-dubnium even temporarily to build it, a ton of packages use nodejs as a dependency, and to uninstall nodejs I would have to remove a lot of other packages, you're either going to have to provide some binary source like a -bin package, or an arch repository, or get it to build with nodejs instead of nodejs-lts-dubnium, I haven't tested it, so it may compile.
Ultimately the code's PKGBUILD isn't very good, it uses the wrong nodejs, uses both npm and yarn, python2, and electron4.
I guess the easiest option would be a bin package, that's what all the other aur packages have chosen.
