This project is aimed to build a web version of VSCode, this is not a fork, simply a web compilation of the VSCode project.
A similar compilation is used to generate VSCode Web test playground.
This project can be used to build a strong web file editor/reader. You need to implement your own FileSystemProvider
through extension.
Additional you can also use proposed API to implement a TextSearchProvider
and FileSearchProvider
.
Sample from official VSCode website consuming Github FileSystemProvider: Demo (requires Github access)
This project is aimed to be used through npm package to avoid consumer to recompile whole solution.
Sample project can be found in this repository to illustate vscode-web usage. This sample is not fully functional as it misses a FileSystemProvider
extension.
