Solidity by Ackee Blockchain Security
Ethereum Solidity and local node testing with security features for Visual Studio Code.
This extension adds language support for Solidity to Visual Studio Code, and provides a Remix-like experience for testing contracts on your local network. Benefits:
- Test and interact with your smart contracts on an Ethereum local node
- See vulnerabilities from static analysis in real-time
- Best code navigation experience, call-graphs and more
Test and interact with your smart contracts on an Ethereum local node
Compile and deploy contracts

Known Issues
Go to references, number of references and other features do not work correctly with no workspace open
It is always recommended to open a project as a folder (File -> Open folder). Open file should only be used when opening a single file or several files inside the same folder.
- Analysis does not work when the workspace contains compilation errors
The extension relies on the solc compiler. For this reason, files containing compilation errors and files importing these files cannot be analyzed.
