Celes for VS Code

Language support for the Celes 0.1 markup language.

Features

• Syntax highlighting — tag names, attributes, inline tags, comments, and content all coloured distinctly
• Snippets — type header, line, list, table, codeblock etc. and press Tab to expand
• Validation — red/yellow squiggles with error messages as you type
• Live HTML preview — click the preview icon in the editor title bar to open a side-by-side rendered view that updates as you type

Requirements

Python must be installed with the celes package:

pip install celes

Settings

If you use a virtual environment or have Python at a custom path:
