The People Work Language (PWL) extension provides syntax highlighting and language support for .ppl and .wrk files. This extension is designed to enhance the development experience for users working with the People Work Language.
Features
Syntax Highlighting:
Keywords like person, user, job, matrix, contact, event, and more.
Sentiment constants: positive, negative, neutral.
Strings, comments, booleans, dates, and identifiers.
Language Configuration:
Auto-closing pairs for brackets, quotes, and parentheses.
Comment support for single-line (//) and block comments (/* */).
Requirements
No additional dependencies are required to use this extension. Simply install it in Visual Studio Code and start working with .ppl and .wrk files.
Installation
Open Visual Studio Code.
Go to the Extensions view by clicking on the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar on the side of the window.
Search for "People Work Language" and click Install.
Open a .ppl or .wrk file to see the syntax highlighting in action.
The PWL extension provides custom icons for .ppl and .wrk files. These icons are compatible with VS Code's built-in icon themes. For the best experience:
Ensure a base File Icon Theme is enabled in VS Code (we recommend "Seti")
Open Command Palette (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + P)
Type "File Icon Theme"
Select "Seti" or another base theme
Your PWL files will automatically use the PWL-specific icons while other files use the base theme's icons
