Flexion Language Support for VS Code

Provides syntax highlighting, code snippets, and language configuration for Flexion (.flon) files.

Features

• Syntax Highlighting: Full syntax highlighting for all Flexion constructs

  • Path declarations
  • Templates
  • References
  • Types and values
  • Comments (single-line and block)

• Code Snippets: Quick snippets for common patterns

  • Path declarations
  • Templates
  • Objects and lists
  • Type annotations
  • Comments

• Auto-Completion: Auto-closing brackets and quotes

• Code Folding: Fold path declarations and nested structures

• IntelliSense & Hovers:

  • Hover over built-in types to see documentation.
  • Hover over values to see detected data types (string, int, float, bool).

• Navigation:

  • Ctrl + Click to jump to #template definitions or usage.
  • This does not work on @paths/references as intended behavior, however sometimes you may be able to still jump to @reference definitions. This is cause of a bug, but will not be fixed.

• Formatting:

  • Automatic indentation and cleanup via Format Document.

• Diagnostics:

  • Validation for undefined templates.

Usage

Access the Flexion Wiki via the sidebar icon or by running the command Flexion: Open Wiki from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
