Katlego Code Sound 🔊

A VS Code extension that plays sound notifications based on your code status — works across all programming languages.

How it works

  • Error sound 🔴 — plays when your code has errors (Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, HTML, CSS and more)
  • Success sound ✅ — plays when all errors are resolved and your code is clean

Features

  • Works with all languages VS Code supports diagnostics for
  • Detects errors from the terminal output (Python tracebacks, npm errors, build failures)
  • Detects task results (build tasks, test runners)
  • Stops the current sound before playing the next one

Requirements

  • macOS (uses afplay for audio playback)
  • VS Code 1.110.0 or higher
