Summary

Visual Studio Code (VSCode) has become the preferred integrated development environment (IDE) for 71% of developers, significantly overshadowing the second choice, Visual Studio, at 33%, according to a StackOverflow survey. Recognizing a gap in syntax highlighting for Tinybird data projects, which are intended to be managed like typical code with versioning and CI/CD, a developer decided to create a syntax highlighter for VSCode. This newly developed tool provides syntax highlighting for .datasource and .pipe files and is now available in the VS marketplace. The initiative aims to enhance the ease and enjoyment of managing data projects, aligning them with the treatment of traditional code projects, and the developer invites feedback from users of other IDEs who might benefit from similar functionality.
