Installation

First, install Visual Studio Code. Next:

  1. Install the CodeChat Editor extension.
  2. (Recommended) switch to a light theme, since the CodeChat Editor only provides a light theme.

Running

  1. Open a file that the CodeChat Editor supports (many source files, along with Markdown files).

  2. Open the Visual Studio Code command palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P. Type CodeChat, select "Enable the CodeChat Editor", then press enter to run the extension. After a moment, the rendered file should load. If it doesn't:

    1. Open the Visual Studio Code settings for the CodeChat Editor by navigating to File > Preferences > Settings then typing CodeChat in the search box. Change the port from its default of 8080 to some other value.
    2. Run the extension again (close the existing window, type Ctrl+Shift+P then select Enable the CodeChat Editor).
