Your Fastly VCL deserves an IDE: bringing full VCL language support to Visual Studio Code
Blog post from Fastly
Configuring Fastly services using Varnish Configuration Language (VCL) has been enhanced with a Visual Studio Code extension that provides a comprehensive suite of features for developers. Initially offering syntax highlighting through VS Code's declarative language extension, the extension now includes diagnostics, contextual completions, signature help, and documentation on hover, utilizing programmatic language extension APIs to enhance development efficiency. Recent upgrades have expanded its functionality to include features such as navigating to definitions, finding all references, document formatting, code folding, renaming symbols, and displaying symbol outlines and breadcrumbs for better navigation. Additional tools like inlay hints and smart selection ranges further streamline the coding process. Powered by the falco VCL developer tool, this extension transforms VS Code into a robust IDE for managing Fastly VCL configurations, making it easy for users to install and leverage these capabilities directly in their development environment.
