Limekit for VS Code

Write Limekit desktop apps in VS Code and run them with one click.

• ▶ Run — the play button above the editor, Run app in the status bar, or Ctrl+F5. Run again to restart; Shift+F5 or ■ stops.
• Errors you can click — a Lua error appears in the Problems panel and is underlined in your code, on the file and line it happened.
• Completion and docs for the whole Limekit API — every widget, method, property and event, with typos like button:setTxt underlined. The Lua extension it needs is installed with this one.
• Snippets — type lk- for a whole app (lk-app), a window, a button with its click handler, a form, a list, a drop-down, a timer and more.

What you need

Limer — download it, unzip it, open your project in it once. That's all: the extension finds Limer from your project on its own. If it ever cannot, it asks you to point at the folder you unzipped Limer into (Limekit: Locate Limer...).
