Template Syntax highlight

[daslicht]

Hi,
when using the @template() decorator you wont get syntax highlight or codecompletion in any ide.

Is there a way ?

Or is there a way to use inline templates like in 'normal' riot?

if you use the inline string syntax, there can't be any syntax highlight, because for the compiler it's just a string. You must split it into a separate file (which gives you also the benefit of pre-compilation).

Anyway, TypeScript folks are working on language extensibility (see microsoft/TypeScript#6508) so perhaps in the future it will be possible to mix TypeScript code with foreign code like HTML, SQL etc.

Sounds great! Thank you !
