A playground to quickly test and demonstrate API features and behavior

API Playground

This repo comprises several subdirectories, each of which is a self-contained extension that demonstrates a particular API, repros a bug, answers a stackoverflow question, etc.

Each directory also contains a .vsix file that you can use to install the extension and try it out for yourself.

Extensions:

• HelloWorld: The default extension generated by the vscode yeoman generator
• SettingsCycler: An extension that provides commands to toggle or cycle through settings, such as diabling and enabling the minimap, switching between themes, etc. Marketplace
• NewFileWithLanguageMode: An extension that provides commands to open new files with the language mode set. It allows opening files with the same language mode as the current file, or configuring keybindings to open files with any language mode. Marketplace / Stackoverflow
• QuickPickDocumentPreview: An extension that demonstrates using a TextDocumentContentProvider to preview different license files while cycling through a QuickPick menu.
• FocusActiveEditor: An extension that will collapse directories and focus the active editor when switching between editors. Stackoverflow
