There’s also a more recent fork, which should be used instead :wink:

Thanks for the info. I also updated my other post telling people to use the ElixirLS extension in VS Code.

Also, to get html.eex files to work properly, you can update your settings.json file so that files.associations": { *.html.EEx: ... } is set to "HTML (EEx)" and not just “html” or “EEx”.

"files.associations": {
    "*.js": "javascript",
    "*.ex": "elixir",
    "*.exs": "elixir",
    "*.eex": "EEx",
    "*.html.EEx": "HTML (EEx)"
},

Eex seems to work in VS Code as an embedded language after that, with syntax highlighting, intellisense, and so on for both html and eex at once.
