v0.7.0

[yoavbls]

In this release, we have a special holiday gift for you that’s been a long time coming! 🎁✨

🔍 Error Previews

New Preview Button: Every pretty error message now features
a preview button that opens the error in a full new tab! 📑

We’ve also added a new panel in the Explorer tab that
automatically shows the error currently under your cursor. 🎯

📁 Copyable Types

all types are fully copyable in the preview because the usual VS Code hover limitations don’t apply!

🛠️ Shiki Bridge

To ensure code blocks work perfectly with your specific theme and extensions, we created a library that generates code blocks with Shiki highlighter by extracting your active theme and extensions. This is something that wasn't possible in VS Code before!

Huge thanks to @MichaelDimmitt and @kevinramharak for the amazing work on making this happen! It’s been a long-awaited feature, and we’re so happy it’s finally here! 🥳

📁 Copy Button

Thanks to @Vinayak9769, we now have a dedicated copy button for error messages!

📺 New Errors in TypeScriptTV

Support for many more error types has been added thanks to @bennycode!
Now, every error includes a direct link. 🔗

🏗️ Under the Hood

We’ve officially completed our migration to a monorepo!

Awesome Christmas Present 🎄!

Thanks @yoavbls , @kevinramharak , and all the others who contributed in the release

[kevinramharak]

I took a year and a half (for #107), but it is finally released with 0.7.0. It really adds value, especially for big and complicated error messages, and provides helpful alternatives to the copying problem (#29).

Huge thanks to @yoavbls and @MichaelDimmitt for sponsoring me, as it motivated me to keep coming back and get it done.

Sponsoring Open Source projects and contributors really makes a difference because it shows someone cares and appreciates what you contribute, even if you do it as a hobby and for fun.

It really makes me rethink what projects and software I use, and to consider the occasional sponsorship, no matter how small, because I now know the difference it can make for a developer.

If there are other extensions that you would like to see using highlighted code blocks matching your VS Code theme and extensions, point them to vscode-shiki-bridge. I'd be happy to help out and to see more extensions make their UI's feel as native as possible.
