Raylib Visual Studio Code extension is a tool that allows you to interact with Raylib projects directly from the Visual Studio Code interface Without the need to use the command line. It provides a set of commands that can be executed from the command palette or through status bar buttons, allowing you to create, build, clean, rebuild, and run Raylib projects with ease.
Commands provided by the Raylib Visual Studio Code extension include:
- Create a new Raylib project using the Raylib Project Creator (rpc) tool.
- Build the current Raylib project using the specified build parameters.
- Clean the build artifacts of the current Raylib project.
- Rebuild the current Raylib project using default settings.
- Compile and run the current Raylib project.
Extension Settings:
- RPC Path: The path to the Raylib Project Creator (rpc) tool. This setting is required for the "Create Project" command to work.
- MinGW Path: The path to the MinGW compiler. This setting is required for the "Build", "Clean", "Rebuild", and "Compile and Run" commands to work on Windows.
- Compile Threads: The number of threads to use for compilation. This setting is optional and can be set to a value greater than 1 to speed up the compilation process.
