Visual Studio Code ROS Extension

Hey all,

I have released the first version of my ROS visual studio code extension. It’s still in early stages, but has a few features to help make ROS development easier:

  • Automatic ROS environment configuration.
  • Highlighting for common ROS files.
  • Create catkin packages.
  • Start and stop the master, and view status.
  • Run catkin_make, rosrun and roslaunch from inside the editor.

You can install the extension using ext install ros, or see the README file for more details. Feedback and contributions are very welcome!
