# Bob Language Extension for VS Code

This extension provides syntax highlighting and language support for the Bob programming language in Visual Studio Code and Cursor.

## Features

- **Syntax Highlighting**: Full syntax highlighting for Bob language constructs
- **Code Snippets**: Useful code snippets for common Bob patterns
- **Auto-closing Brackets**: Automatic bracket and quote pairing
- **Indentation**: Smart indentation for Bob code blocks
- **Comments**: Support for line and block comments
- **Folding**: Code folding support with region markers

## Supported Syntax

### Keywords
- Control flow: `if`, `else`, `while`, `for`, `break`, `continue`, `return`
- Variable declaration: `var`
- Function declaration: `func`
- Logical operators: `and`, `or`, `not`

### Built-in Functions
- `print()`, `assert()`, `input()`, `type()`, `toString()`, `toNumber()`, `time()`

### Data Types
- Numbers (integers and floats)
- Strings (single and double quoted)
- Booleans (`true`, `false`)
- None value (`none`)

### Operators
- Arithmetic: `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `%`
- Comparison: `==`, `!=`, `<`, `>`, `<=`, `>=`
- Logical: `&&`, `||`, `!`
- Bitwise: `&`, `|`, `^`, `<<`, `>>`, `~`

## Installation

### From Source
1. Clone this repository
2. Run `npm install` to install dependencies
3. Run `npm run compile` to build the extension
4. Press `F5` in VS Code to launch the extension in a new window

### Manual Installation
1. Copy the extension files to your VS Code extensions directory
2. Restart VS Code
3. Open a `.bob` file to see syntax highlighting

## Usage

### Code Snippets
Type the following prefixes and press `Tab` to insert code snippets:

- `func` - Function definition
- `if` - If statement
- `ifelse` - If-else statement
- `while` - While loop
- `for` - For loop
- `var` - Variable declaration
- `print` - Print statement
- `assert` - Assert statement
- `anon` - Anonymous function
- `return` - Return statement
- `break` - Break statement
- `continue` - Continue statement
- `comment` - Comment block
- `test` - Test function

### File Association
Files with the `.bob` extension will automatically be recognized as Bob language files.

## Example

```go
// This is a comment
var message = "Hello, Bob!";
print(message);

func factorial(n) {
    if (n <= 1) {
        return 1;
    }
    return n * factorial(n - 1);
}

var result = factorial(5);
assert(result == 120, "Factorial calculation failed");
```
