Features

• Diagnostics: Real-time parse error reporting via textDocument/publishDiagnostics
• Formatting: Document formatting via textDocument/formatting (uses Vora's SourceFormatter)
• Completion, go-to-definition, hover, document symbols: Implemented via SemanticAnalyzer (scope-aware read-only AST analysis, no VM dependency). Also provides references and signature help.

Building

The LSP server is built as part of the main Vora project:

cd Vora
cmake -B build
cmake --build build --target vora-lsp

The binary vora-lsp (or vora-lsp.exe on Windows) is produced in the build output directory.

VS Code Extension

Development

cd Vora-LSP
npm install
npm run compile

Press F5 in VS Code to launch an Extension Development Host with Vora support.

Packaging

npm install -g @vscode/vsce
vsce package

This produces vora-lang-0.1.0.vsix which can be installed via code --install-extension.
