Language Server written on C# for VS Code Web Extension #787
-
|
I have been working on language server using C# and than integrating it with VS Code extension. I managed to make everything work for VS Code desktop which uses node js but I am struggling to work with server in VS Code web. According to example I should use Web Worker to run language server on background. In example server is implemented in js while mine is not. Is it possible to run Language Server written on C# for VS Code web extension? |

You would need to compile the C# to WASM to run it in the user's web browser. Here's an example, but they didn't use C# so I don't know how similar it would be. https://www.hiro.so/blog/write-clarity-smart-contracts-with-zero-installations-how-we-built-an-in-browser-language-server-using-wasm If you know browser support is important, it makes more sense to write your LSP in TS from the start. |
