A VSCode extension that reformats TypeScript error messages into prettier, human-readable output with syntax highlighting. It supports TypeScript across many file types including .ts, .tsx, .astro, .svelte, .vue, and JSDoc-typed JavaScript.
Use cases
- make TypeScript error messages readable
- understand complex type errors in VSCode
- syntax highlight types in compiler errors
- navigate to type declarations from error messages
- read TypeScript errors in plain English
- see prettier errors in Vue, Svelte, and Astro files
When to choose
- you work with TypeScript in VSCode and struggle with verbose type errors
- your codebase has complex generics or deeply nested types
- you want quick navigation to type declarations from errors
When to avoid
- you don't use VSCode or a compatible editor like Cursor
- you work in plain JavaScript without JSDoc types
- you prefer raw compiler output for tooling reasons
