Impulse Language for VS Code

Local VS Code support for Impulse:

• .imp language detection
• TextMate syntax highlighting
• Impulse Synapse Bloom color theme
• snippets for signal, on, node, surge, actor, and supervisor

Visual Language

The theme avoids generic keyword coloring. It treats Impulse code as a living propagation graph:

• Signals glow electric cyan.
• Reactive handlers bloom coral.
• Pulses and lifecycle operations burn amber.
• Actors, clusters, and domains sit in violet.
• Shared state is cool mint.
• Errors discharge in red.

Development Install

From VS Code:

1. Open this vscode-impulse folder.
2. Press F5.
3. In the Extension Development Host, open an .imp file.
4. Select Impulse Synapse Bloom from Preferences: Color Theme.

For a permanent install, package it later with vsce package.
