An extension for VSCode for syntax highlighting

And maybe for IntelliJ as well

[pfusik]

I started developing the VSCode extension.

[pfusik]

Still working on it. You can try it by opening VSCode as follows:

code --extensionDevelopmentPath=/full/path/to/editors/vscode

[pfusik]

I added syntax highlighting for SciTE, my favorite editor for Windows/Mac/Linux.

Released to the Marketplace:

Syntax highlighting only for now.

Also released cito as a .NET tool. Install with:

dotnet tool install -g cito

and follow the displayed instructions to add to your PATH.

@pfusik Planning on plugin for JetBrains IDE?

[pfusik]

@danon Yes. This requires a parser in Java, which is mostly done (#48).

[danon]

@pfusik Do you have it open source?

[pfusik]

@danon There's no IntelliJ-specific code yet. The cito parser is mostly ported to Ć and the plan is to finish this transition, transpile the parser to Java and then provide IntelliJ integration.

[pfusik]

The VSCode extension now reports syntax errors, using the parser in Ć transpiled to JavaScript:

To be released soon.

I've just released Fusion 3.2.0, which includes major changes in the VSCode extension. Now it reports all errors, not only syntax errors. "Go to definition" works. More features (autocomplete etc) to come.

3.2.2 has symbols and snippets:

Are there any plans to publish the extension to Open VSX Registry? It would make the extension easily available on VSCode-derived editors (like VSCodium).

[pfusik]

I wasn't aware of Open VSX Registry. Published now - please test!

I also added syntax highlighting for Visual Studio (non-Code) and Vim: https://github.com/fusionlanguage/fut/blob/master/doc/editors.md

This is so cool. I really need the auto-completion function. Is it in progress?

[pfusik]

Eric Lippert estimated C# auto-completion at 10 man-years. :)

I think perhaps just providing auto-completion of type names, field names, and method names is enough to greatly improve development efficiency.

What other auto-completions are there?

I think there may also be local variables, function signatures (parameters), context-aware keywords, statement completion etc. (perhaps my description is not professional enough).

Tried it out, seems to work just fine. Thank you very much!

I'm open to feedback on the VSCode extension as I'm not using VSCode personally. What works well, what needs to be added (aside from auto-completion, which is high-priority) ? Any bugs?
