Official Visual Studio Code extension for the Shae programming language (.shae).
Features
🎨 Syntax Highlighting: Full TextMate grammar supporting keywords, raw strings (r"..."), radix literals (0x, 0b, 0o), pattern matching, control flow, and operators.
⚡ Language Server Protocol (LSP): Powered directly by the built-in shae lsp daemon.
Live Diagnostics: Real-time syntax errors and static analysis linter warnings (unused variables, unreachable code, variable shadowing).
IntelliSense & Autocompletion: Auto-complete keywords, standard library modules (std:crypto, std:regex, std:codec, std:fs, etc.), builtins, and in-file symbols.
Hover Documentation: Detailed documentation for keywords and built-in functions.
Document Formatting: Canonical AST formatting integrated with shae fmt.
🚀 Run Active File: Command to execute the current .shae file in the integrated terminal.
