BedRock Language — VS Code Extension v0.2
Syntax highlighting, real-time diagnostics, built-in MIPS emulator, and register inspector for BedRock.
What's New in v0.2
- Built-in MIPS Emulator — no external tools needed. Executes
.bin files directly inside the extension.
- Register Inspector Panel — live WebView showing all 32 MIPS registers (hex + decimal), PC, disassembly, and instruction count.
- Launch Button —
▶ button in the editor title bar compiles and starts debugging in one click.
