PyScope - Python Code Block Highlighter 🎨🐍

Tired of losing track of your Python code blocks? Struggling to see where that if statement ends or where your def begins? Say hello to PyScope! 🚀

What is PyScope? 🤔

PyScope is your new best friend for writing Python code in VS Code. It highlights code blocks (like functions, loops, and conditionals) with beautiful background colors, making it super easy to see where each block starts and ends. No more squinting at indentation! 👀

Why Use PyScope? 🌟

• Visualize Python Blocks: See your def, if, for, and other blocks clearly with colorful highlights.
• No More Indentation Confusion: Never lose track of where a block ends, even in deeply nested code.
• Customizable Colors: Make it your own with customizable highlight colors. 🎨
• Lightweight & Fast: Works seamlessly without slowing down your editor. ⚡

How Does It Work? 🛠️

PyScope uses Python's indentation rules to dynamically detect code blocks. When you move your cursor, it highlights:

• The entire block (with a subtle background color).
• The first line (with a darker highlight).
• The last line (with a darker highlight).

It’s like having X-ray vision for your Python code! 👓

Features ✨

• Dynamic Block Detection: Automatically detects blocks as you type.
• Cursor Tracking: Highlights the block where your cursor is. 🖱️
• Supports All Python Keywords: Works with def, class, if, else, for, while, try, except, and more.
• Customizable: Change highlight colors and opacity to match your theme. 🎨
