  • Pragtical: The practical and pragmatic code editor
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 20 Aug 2024
    https://github.com/pragtical/plugins/commit/54096a6461f5c034... makes me long for The One Grammar To Rule Them ™

    I thought for a while that TextMate bundles[1] were that, especially since JetBrains[2], Linguist[3] and VSCode[4] honor them. However, in the spirit of "the good thing about standards ..." highlight.js does[5] almost the same thing that Pragtical does which makes me feel even worse

    I had high hopes for Tree-Sitter since it seems to have really won mindshare, but the idea of having an executable grammar spec[6] is ... well, no wonder it hasn't caught on outside of that specific ecosystem

  • Building a syntax highlighting extension for VS Code
    12 projects | dev.to | 1 Mar 2024
    Luckily, there is a project that has fitted my needs perfectly: vscode-grammar-test. It’s a command line tool that builds on the VS Code regex engine and grammar file parser and allows to run unit tests directly against a given grammar file.
  • Dark mode with Shiki and Code Hike
    7 projects | dev.to | 29 Jan 2023
    Shiki does this because the underlying library vscode-textmate or vscode-oniguruma returns black if the value is not a valid color. This explains why Code Hike uses blackish color codes instead of variables. But what if we write a variable directly into the theme instead of the color code.
  • How to get font colors but not syntax highlighting for a file in custom language?
    2 projects | /r/vscode | 6 Jan 2023
    Thank you for the response! I feared that I might have to create a vscode extension for the language. I'm assuming I can use this json file to build textmate grammar for Stks ? Do you suggest any specific resources for learning textmate grammar and regex? I'm especially unfamiliar with regex. Thanks again

  • Show HN: Ray.so – Create beautiful images of your code

    There are lots of different approaches you could take. For sourcecodeshots, I run it through VSCode's tokenizer (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-textmate) and then use node-canvas to generate the image one line at a time.

    It's a very imperative process and fairly slow on a cpu, but the nice thing is that I can run the same code in the browser to speed up development. The Rust project, https://github.com/Aloxaf/silicon, mentioned in another part of the comments is probably faster, but I didn't find it when I was searching for a solution.
