This project establishes the central development and maintenance of syntax definition files for the PowerShell language used by editors that leverage the XML version of the TextMate language grammar format.
Currently this syntax definition is used in the following editors and extensions:
- Visual Studio Code by Microsoft
- PowerShell Package for Sublime Text by Guillermo López-Anglada
- language-powershell for Atom by James Sconfitto
In the future we may find a more common syntax that allows us to generate syntax definitions for editors that don't leverage the TextMate format.
We are starting with the current state of the TextMate grammar that is being used in both VS Code and Sublime Text. There are a number of existing issues with the grammar that we need to track down and fix. Please see issue #1 for more details.
We would love to have community contributions to this project to make PowerShell syntax highlighting great in as many editors as we can. Please feel free to file issues or send pull requests if you'd like to contribute.
