How do I get this to work in visual studio?

[Griffork]

I have a custom build setup in visual studio (thus I can't use vs code) but I use typescript's normal language service. Adding assemblyscript to my build pipeline should be easy, but I'm stuck on how I could get assemblyscript's language service to be used by visual studio's intellisense?

If there's a plugin for Visual Studio so that it can compile assembly script the same way typescript works that would be best (because I can override it in the project's build script).

Thanks!

I'm familiar with VS code, but not visual studio, so I don't know the differences. However, could you post your setup? You can now use asconfig.json, which could include the entry file you want to compile and its output file. Then it's as simple as making the editor invoke asc in the project directory.

Not sure if this answers your question. You can also use asbuild, which makes assumptions about your project setup and should again be as easy as just invoking asb once it is on your path.

@willemneal Visual Studio uses a closed-source typescript plugin to hook typescript's language service into intellisense as well as provide extra capabilities such as more language-specific refactor commands. Afaik it's not customisable outside of writing a plugin for Visual Studio, which is what I'm asking for.
