Add Sidebar View #6

Open Savio-Sou opened 1 year ago

Savio-Sou commented 1 year ago

Problem

The Noir VS Code extension does not currently expose a Sidebar View, which could act as a useful foundation for executing nargo-equivalent actions (e.g. compiling, proving) via a GUI down the road.

Happy Case

As a Noir developer, I want to:

  1. Install the Noir VS Code extension
  2. Click the Noir VS Code extension button on the Sidebar (which opens up a Noir Sidebar View)

so I can carry out further actions through the GUI (exact actions would be covered in other GitHub Issues).

This sidebar would need to exist in context of how Noir Workspace function. More details needed to specify behavior of this feature. Eg. how should contents update on file change where different file can belong to different workspace. What if user has more than one workspace’s open, etc.

Thanks for the ping @kobyhallx 🙌

This issue is meant for implementing just the skeleton of a Sidebar View. See if the "Happy Case" described in https://github.com/noir-lang/vscode-noir/issues/7 correlates to your question?

(Not sure if I fully follow how Noir Workspaces could complicate things, so feel free to follow-up there!)
