(🔊) Made a little harness to livecode vscode extensions.
Here I change the extension (local to the project) to treat notes in parens as a chord.
No more compile, close, re-open workflow. And that's assuming you've created the extension to begin with. I often make one-off short-lived things and having to manage an extension is annoying.
Now I can just have a .vscode-sandbox.js in each project and make useful little one-off things.
I made a game for GMTK with the goal of making a game that I would spend longer playing than building it. Here's my first 1M point run. (you'll notice there are still visual bugs to fix!)

What do you use for visualizing / sanity checking parsing / compiling stages?
I feel like until things are stable, I want the equivalent of rainbow brackets on each node of the AST.
Also thinking about optimization steps, like what happens to each node etc
Lide (live language) dev log 6
Decided to spend some time on async - very rudimentary, but can call multiple functions at a time without blocking.
There are some experiments I want to perform where this behavior will be needed.
Plenty more attention deserved here.
Live language devlog 5 (working name "lide")
I've also been working on graceful error handling, runtime seamlessly continuing even when there are syntax errors. Here's a demonstration.
Also been investigating state management a lot and hoping to give a fun update about it soon.
Edit: And after posting this I see a bug where somehow it parsed the text draw improperly when the circle draw call was not closed- I'll need to investigate!
I'm started a live programming discord. Come talk about and share live programming related stuff. Invite your friends. @albertzak @xavier @akkartik @disconcision- I don't know too many folks on here yet, but I know you're all working on cool stuff!
Live language dev log 4
Spent a bunch of time figuring out how to go about doing rust bindings / native functionality / live evaluation when there's an event loop involved! I'm effectively handing it off.
Here's the result! Both native window update and graphics updates.
