7 months ago More or less done with 053a7645eec56452c4b3a9b6cc438e717c037118.
Actually doing this required two things I didn't have, and which were non-trivial. The first was a fallback tokenizer. That project is started, but is currently bad: https://github.com/ChimeHQ/Lowlight
The second was a proper document->extension connection. This a fair bit of work, and doing it required modifying the ChimeKit API slightly.
The app can now successfully do three-phase highlighting for Go. I was going to do Swift, but something is wrong with sourcekit-lsp's semantic tokens support. I know that gopls works, so I used it as a proof-of-concept.
I really want to add this support to Neon, and it's close!
However, to actually test it, I needed to get semantic tokens from a language server. That required wiring up a lot of stuff so that document-level information can be accessible and, whew, that's been some work. But I'm super happy with the infrastructure.
