Visual Studio Code Z-Specification Workshop Extension

Z-Specification Workshop is an extension for Visual Studio Code, aiming to provide all-in-one features and utilities for Z-Notation typesetting with Visual Studio Code. This extension is based on the elegant LaTeX Workshop by James Yu LaTeX-Workshop (GitHub), LaTeX-Workshop (VS Code). His code deserves the most credit!

Features

  • Build Z to PDF automatically on save.
  • View PDF on-the-fly (in VS Code or browser).
  • Syntax highlighting (colorized code) for .zed.
  • Outline of the .zed file being worked on

Requirements

  • LaTeX distribution in system PATH. For example, TeX Live.
    • Please note MikTeX does not ship with SyncTeX. See this link for a possible solution.
  • Perl (for latexmk to work)
  • Optional: Set your LaTeX toolchain (LaTeX Workshop should just work out of the box for users with latexmk installed).

Usage

  • Open a .zed file, right click and utilize the features from the context menu.
  • Alternatively, VS Code commands are provided in VS Code Command Palette (ctrl/cmd + shift + P).
