SlowLang - VS Code extension

Syntax highlighting for .slow files. SlowLang executes as Python, so the grammar is the built-in Python grammar plus the please() keyword (scoped keyword.other.slowlang).

Publish (one-time, needs a publisher account)

  1. Create a publisher at https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/manage (sign in with a Microsoft account, create an Azure DevOps org when asked, publisher ID sebin-gg to match package.json).
  2. npm i -g @vscode/vsce then vsce login sebin-gg (paste a DevOps PAT with Marketplace > Manage scope).
  3. From this directory: vsce package then vsce publish.
  4. Mirror to Open VSX: first publication needs an Eclipse account, the Eclipse Foundation Publisher Agreement signed, and the sebin-gg namespace created at https://open-vsx.org (link it via your GitHub account). Then npx ovsx publish -p <token>.

SlowLang won TinkerHub Useless Projects 2.0. Demo: https://sebin-gg.github.io/slowlang/
