Open Source VS Code Extension

Stereo

Your markdown runs now.

A VS Code extension that makes code blocks executable. Write .md files, see live dashboards inline. Open source, zero lock-in.

Live dashboard output from a standard markdown file

Three steps. No config.

1

Write executable blocks

Add ```tsx run to any code block in a standard .md file. That's the only syntax change.

2

Open Stereo preview

Press Ctrl+Shift+M to open the Stereo panel alongside your editor. Split view, side by side.

3

Click Run

Hit the Run button on any block. Output renders inline: metrics, tables, charts. Auto-refresh optional.

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Zero Lock-in

Files stay .md. No proprietary format, no cell metadata. Works with git, GitHub, GitLab, any renderer.

Live Dashboards

Built-in components: MetricCard, Sparkline, StatusTable. Render live data from APIs directly in your markdown.

Secret Injection

Rust sidecar replaces {"{{env.X}}"} from .env files. Credentials never touch the JavaScript runtime.

Auto-Refresh

Set refresh=30s on any block. Data stays current without manual re-runs. Polling, not polling you.

VS Code Native

CustomTextEditorProvider. Your keybindings, your theme, your extensions. No Electron wrapper on top of Electron.

Open Source

MIT licensed. Inspect every line, fork it, self-host it. No telemetry, no analytics, no tracking.

You already have the tools. We connect them.

vs Moment.dev

They built a new app. We built an extension. Same insight — markdown plus executable code is the best interface — without the new binary on your dock.

vs Jupyter

No cell metadata, no .ipynb lock-in. Just .md. Your files render on GitHub, diff cleanly in PRs, and open in any text editor.

vs Grafana

Your dashboard lives where your code lives. No new tab, no context switching. Runbooks and dashboards in the same file.
