Brainrot VSCode Extension

🤔 What is Brainrot?

Brainrot is a meme-inspired programming language that translates common programming keywords into internet slang and meme references. This VSCode extension provides syntax highlighting and basic language support for Brainrot files (.brainrot).

Example:

skibidi main {
    yapping("Hello, World!");
    bussin 0;
}

In Brainrot:

• skibidi is equivalent to void
• rizz is equivalent to int
• bussin is equivalent to return
• And much more...

🛠 Features

This extension adds:

• Syntax highlighting for Brainrot language keywords, operators, and built-in functions.
• File association for .brainrot files.
• Basic language configuration (comments, brackets, etc.).
