VSCode Support

A VSCode language extension is planned. (If you know how to develop VSCode extensions, we could use your help!) In the meantime, to get basic code coloring, you can do the following:

Install PostCSS Language Support#

Jess doesn't use PostCSS, but this is a syntax highlighter that is flexible to syntax.

The extension can be found here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=csstools.postcss

Associate .jess files with PostCSS#

Add this to your settings.json file:

"files.associations": {
"*.jess": "postcss"
}

Other IDEs#

For other IDEs, the process should be similar. Find a flexible CSS-y syntax highlighter (like PostCSS), and associate it with .jess files.
