Support Syntax Highlighting for Solidity

[bijoy26]

Solidity is a programming language designed for developing smart contracts that run on Ethereum blockchain.

It would be great for this project to have syntax highlighting support for Solidity. Here is the Solidity extension repo for VS code and here's the json syntax file.

Additionally, if you want me to do this, I'm up for adding this feature.

Awesome. I'm a newcomer in this project, so would you mind sharing the high level steps to add the extension? Also, should I use cloud development (gitpod) or build the project locally?

You can follow the examples like these https://github.com/conwnet/github1s/tree/master/extensions/scala-web https://github.com/conwnet/github1s/tree/master/extensions/elm-web https://github.com/conwnet/github1s/tree/master/extensions/dart-web

I suggest building the project locally.

Any workarounds to support the solidity syntax?

I am planning to support more native VS Code extensions in GitHub1s. Once we achieve this, we can support solidity syntax by installing native Solidity extension. 😀

We Can use it with This Extension after #353
