How it started

SpartanHalo
Hi guys,

I’m starting to work at the first project—> build all Logic gates.

However, I know the Boolean algebra behind logic gates- I would like advice to implement code in editor.

1) I use VSCode, What’s the best exstension?
2) Last night I write some lines of code but VSCode answer me “{:, mission”

Why do you want to use VSCode for this project? All you need is a text editor that can save files as straight ASCII text files. There's no reason you can't use VSCode for that, but why deal with more complexity that you need? You shouldn't need any extensions to open, edit, and save text files.

If you think there is some kind of extension for VSCode specific for writing HDL files for Nand2Tetris, think again. Sure, someone could develop one, but why? Just write your HDL file as a text file and load that file into the Hardware Simulator tool that is available from the website or use the new web-based simulator.

Your second question is so vague as to not allow any meaningful response. It's like me telling you that I like to drive Ford, but when I push some buttons on the dash it makes a sound and then expecting you to provide some advice.
