Milestone Reached: YINI Syntax Highlighting Is Now on the VS Code Marketplace

A small but important YINI milestone has been reached: the official YINI Syntax Highlighting extension for Visual Studio Code has reached version 1.0.0 and is now available on the Visual Studio Marketplace.

The extension targets YINI Specification 1.0.0 RC 6 and adds syntax highlighting for .yini configuration files directly in VS Code.

It highlights YINI sections, keys, values, strings, numbers, comments, lists, objects, directives, and other RC 6 syntax.

You can install it directly from VS Code by searching for:

YINI Syntax Highlighting

Marketplace:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=yini-lang.yini-syntax-highlighting

Version:   1.0.0
Publisher: yini-lang
Package:   yini-syntax-highlighting

Syntax highlighting is only one part of the YINI ecosystem, but it makes .yini files much nicer to read and work with in everyday development.
