Rich Syntax Highlighting for Go language

With this extension, your favorite theme will be able to color your code better.

NOTE: Go Syntax became the default Go grammar in the official VS Code in v1.86 (release note).

About

Go Syntax improves your coding experience by providing client-side syntax highlighting based on TextMate rules. This means you can enjoy advanced code coloring without relying on the Language Server Protocol (LSP).

It is compatible with various platforms, including web-based code editors like vscode.dev and github.dev.

⚠️ Warning: Gopls' ui.semanticTokens setting is disabled by default, and enabling semantic highlighting might override the tokens.

Contributing

Credits

This extension enhances better-go-syntax with new features.
