SixtyFPS for Visual Studio Code

This extension for VS Code adds support for the SixtyFPS design markup language.

Features

• Syntax highlighting
• Diagnostics from .60 files
• Live Preview of a .60 file
• Completion of properties
• Jump to definition (currently, only definition of Component)

Installation

You can install the extension directly from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace. Afterwards it is automatically activated when editing files with the .60 extension.

Live-Preview

In addition to the usual code editing features such as completion and syntax highlighting, this extension also offers the ability to view a rendering of the file you're editing and update it on-the-fly when making changes.

You can issue the "SixtyFPS: Show Preview" command from the command palette when editing a .60 file. This will create a new top-level window that renders the file you're editing. Any changes you make are immediately visible, it is not necessary to save the file.

Reporting Issues

Issues should be reported in the SixtyFPS issue tracker.

Building from Source

1. Build the LSP

cargo build --bin sixtyfps-lsp

2. run npm install in the vscode directory

cd vscode_extension
npm install

How to debug the LSP

At the moment you need to load this directory in VS code and then start debugging (Run -> Start Debugging). That will "debug" the vs code extension and create a new VS code window. The LSP server binary will be started if previously built You can see the output in the output pane "SixtyFPS LSP" (that's the drop-down that usually shows "Tasks").

How to build the extension package

To create a .vsix package for local installation:

1. Follow the setup steps above to build the lsp binary and install npm dependencies.

2. Create a .vsix package (needs vsce installed)

npm run local-package

3. Install the .vsix file with

code --install-extension sixtyfps-vscode-*.vsix

4. Reload your VS code windows

Note that the resulting .vsix package contains your locally built debug LSP server. It is not suitable for distribution.
