Fahhhhhh Logo

A fun and highly effective VS Code extension that provides immediate audio feedback when terminal commands fail. Never miss a compilation error or script failure again!

🚀 Overview

Fahhhhhh is designed to transform your development experience by adding a layer of auditory awareness to your workflow. Whether you're juggling multiple terminals or just need a lighthearted alert for failed tasks, this extension automatically plays a satisfying "fahhhhhh" sound whenever a command exits with an error code.

✨ Key Features

  • 🔊 Auto-Trigger on Error: Automatically plays fahhhhhh.wav when terminal commands fail (non-zero exit code).
  • 🛠️ Manual Playback: Trigger the sound manually via the Command Palette for testing or fun.
  • ⚡ Performance Optimized: Features a smart cooldown system to prevent sound overlapping during rapid-fire errors.
  • 🌐 Fully Offline: No internet connection required. All assets are bundled locally.
  • 💻 Cross-Platform: Seamlessly works on Windows (PowerShell), macOS (afplay), and Linux (paplay/aplay).
