Updating outdated monaco packages

[shutterfreak]

When scaffolding a langium project with yeoman, the following Monaco-related packages are rather outdated:

1. @codingame/monaco-vscode-api (3.2.3)
2. @codingame/monaco-vscode-editor-api (3.2.3)
3. @codingame/monaco-vscode-editor-service-override (3.2.3)
4. @codingame/monaco-vscode-keybindings-service-override (3.2.3)
5. monaco-editor-wrapper (4.0.2)
6. monaco-languageclient (8.1.1)

The only files importing Monaco-related dependencies are:

1. vite.config.ts
2. src/setupClassic.ts
3. src/setupCommon.ts
4. src/setupExtended.ts

Since monaco is now at version 15.0.3 I suppose upgrading from 3.2.3 to 15.0.3 is not straightforward. Can somebody tell how they did it? What modifications are needed?

Hey @shutterfreak,

Please ask the people over at the respective project: https://github.com/TypeFox/monaco-languageclient/discussions. We are currently in the process of removing the monaco integration, because it's difficult for us to maintain.

Hi @shutterfreak we opened TypeFox/monaco-languageclient#868 "Integrate Langium project generation and documentation" on the monaco-languageclient side and #1810 to track this.

We have the statemachine and the langium grammar example available here:
https://github.com/TypeFox/monaco-languageclient/tree/main/packages/examples/src/langium/statemachine
https://github.com/TypeFox/monaco-languageclient/tree/main/packages/examples/src/langium/langium-dsl
The Langium grammar example features both classic and extended mode.

We also use vite to generate a bundle we deploy on GitHub Pages. You can use them directly online here:
