CodeMood - Visual Code Quality Feedback

CodeMood is a VS Code extension that provides real-time visual feedback about your code quality through emoji-based facial expressions. Get instant insights into your code's "mood" based on errors, warnings, and other quality indicators.

Features

• Real-time Mood Analysis: See your code's mood update as you type
• Emoji-based Feedback: Intuitive facial expressions from 😭 (critical issues) to 🤩 (perfect code)
• Multi-language Support: Works with JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, Rust, Go, YAML, and more
• Smart Scoring: Advanced algorithm considers error severity, file size, and language-specific factors
• Performance Optimized: Intelligent caching and debouncing for smooth experience
• Command Palette Integration: Easy access through VS Code commands

How It Works

CodeMood analyzes your code using VS Code's diagnostic system and calculates a mood score based on:

• Errors: Heavy penalty (-15 points each)
• Warnings: Medium penalty (-5 points each)
• Info messages: Light penalty (-1 point each)
• File size: Slight penalty for very large files
• Language bonuses: Extra points for clean code in strict languages like TypeScript and Rust

Mood Categories

• 🤩 Ecstatic (90-100): Perfect code quality
• 😊 Happy (70-89): Good code quality
• 😐 Neutral (50-69): Average code quality
• 😟 Concerned (30-49): Some issues detected
• 😢 Sad (10-29): Many problems found
• 😭 Devastated (0-9): Critical issues need attention

1. Install the extension
2. Open a supported code file
