Description
Currently, there are 2 options of exploration provided by the extension.
- Explore Core Functions: Opens a webpage with all the core functions in a list.
- Search Functions: Uses our Algolia instance and a local search to fuzzy match core functions, proposed functions (via PR to
radashi-org/radashi), and local functions.
Proposal
I propose adding an “Explore Functions” command that opens a tab in the editor (similar to what we do for the View Documentation subcommand of the Search Functions command) which contains a list of functions provided by the current Radashi workspace. The list is HTML-structured, with each function's name and description, grouped accordingly. You can click a function cell to view its documentation in a new tab. There's also a link to view source code.
Visuals
The UI will resemble our API reference page, but much of the styling will be inherited from VS Code and the current VS Code theme.
We already have HTML for a function's individual documentation page (see here). We can probably reuse a lot of that, including the Shiki integration.
All local
The initial goal here is to display only the functions that actually exist in your Radashi. We can achieve this completely offline (e.g. no Algolia search) by scanning the exports of your Radashi's generated mod.ts module with @babel/parser.
Future plans
Later on, we can add subviews to this Explore Functions view like Core Functions and Proposed Functions, alongside My Functions (the default subview), with buttons to switch between.
