# LSP web extension Example
A LSP server that runs in a web extension
## Functionality
This Language Server add color decorators to plain text files.
- create a plain text file
- enter text that contains colors in hex format (#rrggbb)
- color decorators
It also includes an End-to-End test.
## Structure
```
.
├── client // Language Client
│ ├── src
│ │ └── browserClientMain.ts // Language Client entry point
├── package.json // The extension manifest.
└── server // Language Server
└── src
└── browserServerMain.ts // Language Server entry point
```
## Running the Sample
- Run `npm install` in this folder. This installs all necessary npm modules in both the client and server folder
- Open VS Code on this folder.
- Press Ctrl+Shift+B to compile the client and server.
- Switch to the Debug viewlet.
- Select `Run Web Extension` from the drop down.
- Run the launch config.
- In the [Extension Development Host] instance of VSCode, open a document in 'plain text' language mode.
- Type #00ff00 or any other color in hex format
- color decorators will appear
- You can set breakpoints in the client code. Debugging the server code currently is not working, see issue [#204114](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/204114).
You can also run and debug the extension in a browser
- `npm run chrome`
- use browser dev tools to set breakpoints
