Error console

[gossi]

Provide an error console, which shows the file, the line number and the error message. On clicking it, opens the associated editor (and highlights the affected line?).

• Create an option to make the error console popup when an error appears

Depends on less/less.js#1776

This looks like idea in https://github.com/Nodeclipse/org.nodeclipse.coffee-js-preview

Also have you checked coffeelint?

[gossi]

No, I haven't. So far this is just an idea and only focussing on transpiling errors, no coffeescript (or less or sass) syntax errors.

But this is also the reason, why there is no code yet. Maybe an error console, that is shared amongst several plugins (through an extension-point) is useful here.

So it is more an aggregation of various ideas so far and then finding a solution that at best helps multiple people.

So, ideas are welcome. What do you think?

There is long road from idea to working solution. And some people don't come through.
You need to go yourself, as most people who create open-source have their own projects too.

I would suggest to implement only 1 of 3 first (but keep in mind about others) and then release.
Then see if you are OK the the feedback you get.
