Visual Studio Extension

[csharpfritz]

We need an extension for Visual Studio 2026 that will:

• add an icon to solution explorer for .TAML files
• provide syntax highlighting for TAML files
• provide syntax checking for TAML files

Anything else?

Once this is started, we'll want a GitHub action to build and publish the extension

I think we should use the proposed TAML icon in #21

// EDIT: changed the link to the banana leaf tamal icon proposal

I'm on it. I'll probably have to create a new Nuget package specifically aimed to provide tokens in a highly fault tolerant way that isn't suited for general parsing

I see there's already an LSP. I should use that

That was totally vibe-coded... I cannot vouch for the quality of it.

@madskristensen
The project link on the marketplace is not correct.

Should be ==> https://github.com/madskristensen/TamlVS :-)

@SvenVandenbrande Thanks, this has now been fixed and I change the logo to be the proposed one from #21
