Feature Request: Visual Studio Code JET Extension

neounixOct 17 2018 — edited Sep 2 2019

Humbly, I request that the Oracle JET team port their NetBean's Oracle Jet extension to Visual Studio Code.

I understand that there is a close development connection between Oracle, Oracle Jet and NetBeans.

However, the vast majority of web developers, including myself and just about every web developer I know, are using Visual Studio Code.

I don't think it would take much effort for anyone to port the existing Oracle JET plugin for NetBeans, with auto completion and templates, etc to Visual Studio Code.

Just incase the Oracle JET team is not familiar with the relatively simple steps to create a VS Code extension, below is a quick tutorial by Brad Traversy.  I am not affiliated with Brad T. in any way, but I do watch his videos and learn from them from time to time.   I'm sure Brad would also appreciate a JET extension for Visual Studio Code and this might even prompt him to add a JET tutorial as well; and in turn, this will surely increase JET's exposure and number of users.

IMO, The sooner the Oracle JET team creates a Visual Studio Code plugin the better for Oracle JET, IMHO.  I assume this can be done less than a day since you have the core NetBeans JET plugin already.

There is little that the huge ecosystem of web developers who use Visual Studio Code will prefer to use NetBeans over VSC, so please expand your developer community support by porting your Oracle JET extension for NetBeans to VSC.   Having autocompletion (Intellisense for Oracle JET and rapid templating) in VSC would be a nice leap forward for JET.

Thank you.  (and ....  Pretty Please).
