Spin Visual Studio (VS) Code Extension

The Spin Extension

VS Code extensions allow you to add tools to your installation, to support your development workflow. Fermyon’s Spin VS Code Extension integrates Spin developer tasks into the VS Code editor.

Installation

The Spin Extension for VS Code can be found in the Visual Studio Marketplace and can also be installed by searching for Fermyon Spin within the Extensions section of your VS Code editor. The extension downloads and uses a compatible version of Spin by default.

Supported Spin Commands

At present, the Spin VS Code Extension supports the spin login, spin build and spin deploy commands. Simply open your VS Code terminal (from the main VS Code menu bar) to perform these commands.
