# Welcome to your VS Code Extension ## What's in the folder * This folder contains all of the files necessary for your extension. * `package.json` - this is the manifest file in which you declare your language support and define the location of the grammar file that has been copied into your extension. * `syntaxes/ll.tmLanguage.json` - this is the Text mate grammar file that is used for tokenization. * `language-configuration.json` - this is the language configuration, defining the tokens that are used for comments and brackets. ## Get up and running straight away * Make sure the language configuration settings in `language-configuration.json` are accurate. * Press `F5` to open a new window with your extension loaded. * Create a new file with a file name suffix matching your language. * Verify that syntax highlighting works and that the language configuration settings are working. ## Make changes * You can relaunch the extension from the debug toolbar after making changes to the files listed above. * You can also reload (`Ctrl+R` or `Cmd+R` on Mac) the VS Code window with your extension to load your changes. ## Add more language features * To add features such as intellisense, hovers and validators check out the VS Code extenders documentation at https://code.visualstudio.com/docs ## Install your extension * To start using your extension with Visual Studio Code copy it into the `/.vscode/extensions` folder and restart Code. * To share your extension with the world, read on https://code.visualstudio.com/docs about publishing an extension.
