Make Language Server

This is a simple language server and corresponding client for Visual Studio Code to provide better support for GNU Make.

What does it do?

  • Autocompletion for implicit and automatic variables, with built in documentation straight from the GNU Make Manual. For the implicit variables, this autocompletion is context-aware: the autocompletion will automatically insert parentheses if they are being referenced, but not if they are being assigned to.

  • Hover support for variable definitions. Hovering over a variable will now show you its definition.

Installation

Install it through the Visual Studio Code marketplace, found here.
