Creator of Hologram
The official Hologram extension for VS Code is now live! It brings full syntax highlighting for HOLO templates - ~HOLO sigils in .ex files and standalone .holo template files.
As the template language has grown, writing HOLO in plain text started to feel increasingly painful - this extension fixes that and makes the editing experience much more pleasant.
Thanks to our sponsors for making sustained development possible: Curiosum (Main Sponsor), Erlang Ecosystem Foundation (Milestones Sponsor), and our GitHub sponsors - Innovation Partner: @sheharyarn, Framework Visionaries: @absowoot, Oban, @Lucassifoni, @robertu, and all other GitHub sponsors.

Good to get syntax highlighting, that plain text sure was grating
bartblast
Thank you, appreciate it!

Love your amazing work!

For Vim it’s easy to piggback off the work that was already done for (H)EEx (takes care of most highlighting and auto-indent). I just had to add control blocks and
There is actually an issue with tuples being mistaken for Hologram delimiters, but once I’ve fixed that I’ll merge.
{}inside HTML attribute values. The PR you see is basically covers done, I’m just sitting on it for a couple of weeks to make sure I didn’t break anything (which I’ve done before). The only plus side of breaking things is that I get to see who some of the other Vim users areI actually think it’s odd how elixir.vim is overly community aware as opposed to having separate packages, but it was like that long before I came on so I’m just rolling with it.

Thanks, will take a look at this!

For Neovim/Helix (and some more obscure ones), it’s as easy as creating a set of treesitter queries (sigil too). Both editors also have a means for users to add custom queries to their config, so we don’t have to wait for official support to get merged and released.

Nice, good to see Vim getting some love too! I haven’t done any research yet on how other editors handle this, but I’m planning to create dedicated packages for other editors as well - including Vim, if applicable. Contributions are welcome - if you’re interested in contributing to the Vim side, you’re more than invited! I believe that the TextMate grammars could be reused in some editors, which should make it easier to bring Hologram syntax highlighting to more places.

While I think I may be the last Vimmer in the Elixir community to have not moved onto NeoVim at this point, I have a PR in the works to bring this to Vim. I’ll likely merge in the next couple of weeks.
