Hello! I love this extension you made, it really makes VSCode feel like Studio and it’s amazing, hopefully this will encourage more people to switch to the former.
There’s only a few details I would improve:
- When defining tables the colours are not the same as in studio
- I’m not particularly fond of variables being in italic, I find them distracting: it would be great to have an option to turn them off
- I would mention in the extension’s description that it has some settings, and maybe tell users how to enable it (just in case someone is very new to VSCode)
- The font looks a little different on my PC than the photos / videos in the documentation: here there’s not much to do, so you could add in the description how to change the font’s size / spacing (even just a link to a guide)
- Some features to me seem a little out of scope (for example the Auto Insert Do, Then, End): I would keep this extension as just a syntax highlighter since most people would use it exclusively for this. But if your wish is to make it be more than that I totally get it.
Besides those small details I feel like this extension is really good and doesn’t need much more work. I really hope it gets more recognition because it’s very interesting!
P.S. I tweaked a couple parameters to have a softer color, blending the extension colours with the Modern Dark theme. Here are the parameters if anyone wants to try it:
"editor.fontFamily": "Menlo, Monaco, 'Courier New', monospace",
"editor.fontSize": 13,
"editor.letterSpacing": 0.2,
"editor.lineHeight": 17,
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"[Roblox Dark]": {
"activityBar.activeBorder": "#0078d4",
"activityBar.background": "#181818",
"activityBar.border": "#2b2b2b",
"activityBar.foreground": "#d7d7d7",
"editor.background": "#202227",
"editor.foreground": "#bcbec8", // make text gray instead of white; to make it stand out more replace with "#d7d7d7"
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground1": "#bcbec8",
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground2": "#bcbec8",
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground3": "#bcbec8",
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground4": "#bcbec8",
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground5": "#bcbec8",
"editorBracketHighlight.foreground6": "#bcbec8",
"sideBar.background": "#181818",
"sideBar.border": "#2b2b2b",
"sideBarSectionHeader.background": "#181818",
"statusBar.background": "#181818",
"statusBar.foreground": "#cccccc",
"tab.activeBackground": "#1f1f1f",
"tab.activeBorderTop": "#0078d4",
"tab.inactiveBackground": "#181818",
"tab.hoverBackground": "#1f1f1f",
"tab.unfocusedActiveBackground": "#1f1f1f",
"titleBar.activeBackground": "#181818",
"titleBar.border": "#2b2b2b",
}
}
(if you don’t know how to do it: (1) Press Ctrl + shift + P (2) in the search bar type Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON) (3) paste inside the table the code I gave you)
Edit: Been playing with a couple properties and found a setup I like better. I’ve updated the parameters!
