Does VS Code have a language extension for Apache Groovy?
Searching the extension store didn't work, but I found something in my master server repository:
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/tree/master/extensions/groovy
But not really sure if this is the extension I want, if it is, just extract this to my folder .vscode/extensions/
?

The extension you linked is built in, meaning the command Change Language Mode
should already display Groovy
for you:
It provides syntax highlighting and snippets, see section "Contributes" package.json
.
However, my guess is that you want something that provides more than just selection and snippets (i.e. completion). Interestingly what exists for Groovy (found at langserver.org ) but I couldn't find a matching VSCode extension. The documentation seems a bit lacking, but after some searching for issues with the repo it seems that the VSCode integration doesn't exist yet :
It is not integrated with VS Code yet. We currently only use it with Monaco and some non-open source code.
In theory, VSCode integration shouldn't be too difficult if the server language specification is followed. There's documentation / examples of language server development here .
