Nim VS Code/Codium Extension #11

Closed saem closed 3 years ago

saem commented 3 years ago

Name: Nim VS Code/Codium Extension

Author: saem

Posting: If you'd like to write programs in Nim and be certain that you're on Nim while doing it, well then the Nim Extension for VS Code/Codium is for you!

Originally started as a port of an extension written in TypeScript, this one is written in straight Nim and compiled to JS -- yes, Nim can do that! The port started as a project to learn Nim itself and make it easier for Nimions or even new Nimlets to be productive using the language and be empowered to make changes to the extension directly. Imagine, being able to improve your tools as you go, it's like macros, but your IDE or something.

@beef331 can you give this a once over.

Aiming for a cheese-y sounding first line, somewhere in the neighbourhood of radio commercial by a car dealership, "every car must go go go!"
