Support for MDQ, a format for
questions and exams written in Markdown, YAML or JSON.
Features
Errors and warnings in the editor and in the Problems panel, updated as you
type. The extension uses the same validator as the mdq npm package.
Completion and hover in YAML and JSON documents, from the MDQ JSON Schema.
A preview of the question, as the student sees it and with its answer key.
Run MDQ: Open Preview to the Side (Ctrl+K V), or use the button in
the editor title. A response you give in the student view is graded in the
answer key view; with no response, the answer key view shows a correct one.
Exams are not previewed yet.
Files
The extension reads files with a double extension:
File
Format
*.mdq.md
Markdown
*.mdq.yaml
YAML
*.mdq.yml
YAML
*.mdq.json
JSON
A *.mdq.md file stays a Markdown file: the editor keeps its highlight and
Markdown features.
