More Info

deeper

deeper is a small Visual Studio Code extension that focuses the current function or logical section and dims the rest of the file so developers like you and I can concentrate while editing large files.

Features

  • Focuses the active function/section and visually dims other regions.
  • Updates automatically when you change the cursor, selection, or active editor.
  • Minimal configuration — designed to be unobtrusive while you work.

Usage

The extension activates automatically when you edit files or change selections. It detects the current function or nearest structural block and highlights it while applying a subtle dimming overlay to other text, helping you stay focused on the current context.

Development / local testing:

  1. Install dependencies: pnpm install
  2. Compile TypeScript: pnpm run compile
  3. Launch the extension in a Development Host: press F5 in VS Code.

Development

  • Entry point: src/extension.ts
  • Core logic: src/heatmap.ts (responsible for detecting sections and applying decorations)
  • Build: pnpm run compile

Packaging & Publishing

To package a VSIX locally use pnpm exec vsce package --no-dependencies.
