NaC for Visual Studio Code

The VS Code NaC extension provides rich language support for the NaC programming language.

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code 1.80 or newer.
• NaC Language Runtime installed on your system.

Quick Start

Welcome! 👋🏻 Whether you are new to NaC or an experienced developer, we hope this extension enhances your development experience.

1. Install NaC from the official installation page if you haven't already.
2. Install the VS Code NaC extension from the Marketplace.
3. Open any .nac file to automatically activate the extension. The NaC status bar will appear in the bottom right corner of the window.

You are ready to NaC :-) 🚀🚀🚀

Feature Highlights

• Syntax Highlighting - Vivid colors for keywords, strings, and numeric values.
• IntelliSense - Highlighting for built-in functions like http, out, and math utilities.
• Code Navigation - Support for code folding to manage large logic blocks.
• Editing Support - Automatic bracket matching and comment toggling (//).

What's Next

• Explore the NaC Language Documentation to learn about syntax and built-in functions.
• Check out the Example section below to see NaC in action.
• If you encounter any bugs, please file an issue on our GitHub repository.

Example Snippet

// HTTP GET request example
http("GET", "https://api.ipify.org/?format=json");

// Fibonacci function definition
fn fibonacci(n) {
    if(n <= 1) {
        rn n;
    };
    rn fibonacci(n-1) + fibonacci(n-2);
};

// Using 'out' for console output
out(fibonacci(10));

Troubleshooting

Syntax highlighting is not working:

• Ensure the file extension is strictly .nac.
• Restart VS Code to refresh the extension host.
• Check the bottom-right corner to ensure "NaC" is the active language mode.

Extension is not appearing:

• Verify that the extension is correctly placed in your .vscode/extensions folder.
• Check that your package.json file is valid and follows the VS Code extension schema.
