I created a VsCode extension to connect with developers!

date 25.02.2021

Yesterday, I released my most complicated extension to the VsCode marketplace. The core concept of **Codemate** is connecting with developers.

What is used to create Codemate?

In VsCode to create a extension you have to use Javascript so I used Typescript to create the extension. But, to make the development simpler I also used Svelte to create user interfaces.

For the backend, I continued with Javscript so I created it with also Typescript. To store data I used most preferred choice, MongoDB.

Extension:

- Typescript - Svelte

Backend / API:

- Typescript - Express.js - Github OAuth - MongoDB

What are the features?

I tried to keep it simple. Right now you can,

- customize your profile (don't forget to pick a programming language) - connect with other people - login with Github (it's more secure) - completely open source

What are the goals?

- Reaching out more people - Publishing web and mobile app - Adding more features to make the place more unique

You can download the extension from VsCode marketplace, thank you!
