About Extension

Install the extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace, then open any .gugu file.

Example:

gugu hello(name):
    gu(f"Hello, {name}!")

gua name = gug("What's your name? ")
hello(name)

Running a Gugu File

Open a .gugu file and use the Run Gugu File button in the editor.

The extension uses the gugu command to execute the current file.

Make sure Gugu is installed before running a program:

python -m pip install gugugaga
