My most recent mods (for example CCM II) is written with my own SCAR Editor. It's coded in C# and uses Scintilla as the code editing component.

That kind of a program quickly gets fairly complicated. Recently, I've been using Visual Studio Code for my web related projects, like my personal website.
Visual Studio Code has a wide range of user-created extensions. I decided to see if I could create such plugin for SCAR that would:
- Highlight with a custom color:
- SCARDOC Functions
- SCARDOC Enums
- SCARDOC Blueprints
- Lua functions
- Future, if possible: User-defiend functions
- SCARDOC Functions
- Autocomplete:
- SCARDOC Functions
- SCARDOC Enums
- SCARDOC Blueprints
- User-defined functions cross-workspace
- SCARDOC Functions
- Intellisense: Auto-complete function parameters for all SCARDOC functions, user-defined functions, and default Lua functions
- Mouse-over help messages: Display relevant help/documentation
The beginning was extremely difficult and frustrating. Since the tool itself is kinda new, all you really have as the support for the development is the documentation and a few samples.
Here's some demos:
Intellisense: Auto-complete and parameter hint
