Summary

Having syntax-highlighting, formatting and type checking for Amber language.

What benefits does this feature provide?

Amber language is a programming language built as a TS-like alternative to Bash. It transpiles to it providing a comfortable way to write Bash scripts without being dependent on the clanky syntax.

It has lsp support.

Any alternatives?

Could be a community package.

Other examples:

Helix, VSCode, Vim, Zed and Nova.

Assuming tree-sitter-amber is what those other editor integrations are using, this would not be too hard. If you wanted to attempt it yourself, we could coach you through it on Discord. If not, that's cool, but it might take a while.

I only use Matrix, not Discord. I could attempt to provide syntax highligning but I never wrote a Pulsar extension (not even an Atom one) for this.
