Overview

CodeLook is a macOS Quick Look extension that delivers instant syntax highlighting for code files directly within the editor. By utilizing Tree-sitter and a native Swift engine, it provides rapid, accurate visual feedback on code structure without requiring additional applications, solving the common issue of static or unformatted code views during development.

The extension includes over 700 themes that can be applied or customized to suit individual preferences, along with support for custom fonts and intelligent modes that adapt to macOS's system aesthetics. Backed by dedicated grammars for seventeen programming languages, it ensures precise token parsing for syntax highlighting across various file types, including Python, JavaScript, and C++.
