Improve syntax highlighting

Open kanej opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

This is an investigation task, can we be deliberate about improving our syntax highlighting, rather than relying on ad-hoc bug reports to make changes.

The first part of the investigation is to assess the quality of our current support:

  • How do we compare with Solidity by Juan Blanco/vscode-solidity-extension by ContractShark
  • VIM syntax highlighters
  • Intellij (Textmate grammar)

The second part is to investigate whether we can leverage slangs canonical representation of the syntax.

Once this investigation is complete we can break down further tasks

We should look at how good our Yul support is in particular.

+1 to supporting syntax highlighting in Yul
