I started to use vscode for python development. And I really like it, does anyone know how to extend VScode so I can write scala in it as well ?
At the bare minimum I need to get syntax highlighting working.
Scala works well in VS Code 2019. There's official syntax highlighting, and a Language Server called Metals (which replaces Ensime which is mentioned in other answers).
To get started, install the Scala (Metals) extension on the VS Code Marketplace and open an sbt project directory. The Metals extension will prompt you to import the build. The build import step can take a while to run and once complete, you can enjoy the features of Metals.
