look@toon - VS Code TOON viewer

A VS Code extension that renders .toon files as interactive tables instead of raw text.

Features

  • Displays each TOON table section as a formatted HTML table
  • Displays top-level scalar values as a properties table
  • Right-aligns numeric and formatted-number columns (e.g. 3.3M, 77.7K)
  • Renders null values as muted italic null
  • Handles all valid TOON value types: strings, numbers, booleans, null
  • Adapts to your VS Code color theme (light, dark, high-contrast)
  • Shows a clear error message when a file cannot be parsed
