Handoff — 2026-09-01 — Dockerfile, compose, YAML and XML colouring (ticket 8)

State

Ticket 8 is done here, on the branch feature/more-syntaxes. Nothing is committed.

The scanners live in turbo-core; this repository's share was small and is finished:

internal/rustlang/templates.go — the snippets template's languages comment lists the nine names Turbo Rust now knows: rust, toml, yaml, markdown, javascript, html, xml, dockerfile, bash.
TestTheCreatedSnippetsFileListsEveryLanguageTheEditorKnows iterates syntax.Registered(), so the comment cannot fall behind the registry again.
docs/{en,fr}/reference/languages.md gained a YAML, an XML and a Dockerfile section, and its recognition and class tables were brought up to date.
The language counts were corrected across the architecture and colouring explanations, both READMEs and the snippets references.

Suite green, quality gate PASS 0/0/0, complexity unchanged. Verified in a real pty: a Dockerfile, a compose.yaml and a pom.xml open and colour, with CDATA contents arriving as a string.

In flight

Nothing half-done.

Next steps

Review and commit on feature/more-syntaxes, merge to main.
Wait for turbo-core v0.2.0 to be tagged and published — see turbo-core's handoff of the same date.
go mod tidy to write the v0.2.0 checksum into go.sum, then make check.

Open questions / blockers

This branch does not build yet. go.mod requires turbo-core v0.2.0 with no active replace, and that version is not published. go build fails with missing go.sum entry for module providing package codeberg.org/turbo-editors/turbo-core/app, which is the expected error, not a defect. To work on this branch before the release, uncomment the replace line at the bottom of go.mod — and remove it again before committing.

Watch out for

The snippets template's language list is a comment, and a comment can lie. The test that iterates syntax.Registered() is what stops it; do not replace it with a hardcoded list "for clarity".
Anything about how the three new languages are coloured belongs in turbo-core, and its handoff of the same date lists the traps.

# Handoff — 2026-09-01 — Dockerfile, compose, YAML and XML colouring (ticket 8)

## State

Ticket 8 is done here, on the branch `feature/more-syntaxes`. Nothing is committed.

The scanners live in turbo-core; this repository's share was small and is finished:

- `internal/rustlang/templates.go` — the snippets template's `languages` comment lists the nine names Turbo Rust now knows: `rust, toml, yaml, markdown, javascript, html, xml, dockerfile, bash`.
- `TestTheCreatedSnippetsFileListsEveryLanguageTheEditorKnows` iterates `syntax.Registered()`, so the comment cannot fall behind the registry again.
- `docs/{en,fr}/reference/languages.md` gained a YAML, an XML and a Dockerfile section, and its recognition and class tables were brought up to date.
- The language counts were corrected across the architecture and colouring explanations, both READMEs and the snippets references.

Suite green, quality gate **PASS 0/0/0**, complexity unchanged. Verified in a real pty: a `Dockerfile`, a `compose.yaml` and a `pom.xml` open and colour, with CDATA contents arriving as a string.

## In flight

Nothing half-done.

## Next steps

1. Review and commit on `feature/more-syntaxes`, merge to `main`.
2. Wait for **turbo-core v0.2.0** to be tagged and published — see turbo-core's handoff of the same date.
3. `go mod tidy` to write the v0.2.0 checksum into `go.sum`, then `make check`.
