LukeLang for VS Code

Official editor support for LukeLang — Myanmar's first official programming language: reactive-native, full-stack, compiling to native C and WebAssembly.

Handles both .lk and .luke, which are syntax v2 by default.

Syntax highlighting — v2 operators and braces, with the conversational v1 phrases still recognised for files built with --syntax=1
Language server (luke LSP) — hover, diagnostics, go to definition, document symbols, rename, formatting, completions
Debugging (luke DAP) — gdb-backed breakpoints on your own source lines, plus a Reactive scope that shows cells and their dependency edges
Snippets — fn, struct, signal, derived, effect on, watch … from db, push watch, and the rest of the v2 surface

Requirements

The extension drives the luke compiler, so you need it built:

git clone https://github.com/lucasdmarshall/LukeLang.git
cd LukeLang/vm && make

The extension auto-detects vm/build/luke in the workspace. Point lukelang.lukePath at the binary if it lives elsewhere.

Debugging additionally needs gdb on your PATH.

Settings

Setting	Default	What it does
`lukelang.lukePath`	`""`	Path to the `luke` binary; empty means auto-detect
`lukelang.enableLsp`	`true`	Start `luke LSP` for `.lk` / `.luke` files
`lukelang.enableDebug`	`true`	Enable `luke DAP` debug sessions

Debugging a file

Launch type lukelang:

{
  "type": "lukelang",
  "request": "launch",
  "name": "Debug Luke",
  "program": "${file}",
  "stopOnEntry": true
}

The repository's .vscode/launch.json has worked examples.

Contributing to the extension

cd tools/vscode/lukelang
npm install
npm run check      # syntax-check the sources
npm run package    # build an installable .vsix

Press F5 in VS Code to launch an Extension Development Host. From the repository root, bash scripts/vscode_extension_package.sh does the install-check-package sequence in one step and is what CI runs.
