CPlusPlus.com Reference - VS Code Extension

Description:

This is a tool to browse cplusplus.com from within vscode essentially updating the original library-documentation-cpp to work with VSCode webview, as the original does not. You will be able to use this extension to search for library and methods documentation of the C++ standard.

Planned Features:

  1. Make dark mode copy VSCode colors (get colors, set specific colors, and get complementary color)
  2. Block ads? (unload ad part)

Usage:

Intended usage:

Press Ctrl+Shift+A on Linux/Windows or Command+Shift+A on macOS, either with your cursor position onto the word you want search for, or at the end of a line to open the main page.

Backup commands:

By opening Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P, Command+Shift+P), you can execute the commands CPlusPlus.com: Search for the current word and CPlusPlus.com: Search manually

Settings:

cplplref.invertColorInDarkTheme

When using vscode's Dark Theme or Dark High Contrast Theme, invert the page's color.

Warning: This feature is implemented using CSS filter and may result in sharper text edges, making it difficult to read.
