creating a custom language / syntax highlighting in VScode

creating a custom language

Official documentation:

• Syntax Highlight Guide
• Semantic Highlight Guide
• Embedded Programming Languages

Other information:

• grammars vs. scopes

but are there any extensions that give you more control over switching back and forth between embedded languages?

• Extended Embedded Languages
• RunMany Syntax Highlighting
• Polyglot Notebooks

Some more out-there extensions, that barely relate to what I'm trying to do:

• Explicit Folding

note-taking inside VScode

• Dendron
  • Oh wow. I think this is good stuff?
  • It lets you embed chunks of code with their own syntax-highlighting.
• Foam
• Markdown Notes
• VS Code Org-Mode
• VS Notes — simple notes
• Notes by Dion Munk

similar note-taking, outside VScode, but note-taking apps that other devs like

• List of personal information managers | Wikipedia
• Joplin
• Logseq
• Zettlr
