I came across this extension and was wondering if it’s possible to implement this in the Julia vc code extension. I believe Julia exposes AST in a simple manner, and so if it matches one of the interfaces the visual extension is looking for, this should just work.

Neat! Could you open an issue on the Julia extension repo?

We first need to get the debugger working, I guess, but I’m getting close.
