Steps to go from this to a vscode extension? #2

Open Pat-Lafon opened 1 year ago

Hello again.

Recently I was introduced to a cool graphvis extension for dot in VSCode which reminded me of this project. There they rendered the dot file in a preview screen with highlighting on hover between related nodes. (Which I guess is similar to your highlight except to the dominator.)

I was wondering if you had any experience or interest in making a bril vscode extension? I was playing around with using tree-sitter grammars at one point for use in syntax highlighting(https://github.com/Pat-Lafon/bril/tree/brilsitter but I think I got tripped up at one point and didn't finish) but something along the lines of your visualization in a preview screen would be pretty cool.

Hey Patrick. I don't have time to build a VSCode extension right now, but definitely feel free to reuse any code in this repo. Given that VSCode extensions are also web based, I think it should be easy to run the rendering code inside the extension.
