# SerCapnp

Cap'n Proto language support for IntelliJ-based IDEs (IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm, PyCharm, CLion, etc.)

## About Cap'n Proto

[Cap'n Proto](https://capnproto.org/) is an insanely fast data interchange format and capability-based RPC system. Think JSON, except binary. Or think Protocol Buffers, except faster.

## Features

- **Syntax highlighting** — keywords, built-in types, identifiers, strings, numbers, constants (`true`/`false`/`void`), comments, unique IDs (`@0x...`), and ordinals (`@0`, `@1`, ...)
- **Bracket matching** — auto-matching for `{}`, `[]`, `()`
- **Comment toggling** — Ctrl+/ to toggle `#` line comments
- **Code folding** — collapse struct, enum, and interface blocks
- **Cap'n Proto ID generation** — generate unique 64-bit schema IDs from Tools menu or Ctrl+Alt+A then G
- **New file action** — File → New → Capnp File
- **Color settings** — fully customizable colors via Settings → Editor → Color Scheme → Cap'n Proto

### Supported Token Types

| Token | Examples |
|-------|---------|
| Keywords | `struct`, `enum`, `union`, `interface`, `const`, `annotation`, `using`, `import`, `extends` |
