monaco-editor-core-full

This is a full-browser build of the Monaco Editor core, forked from microsoft/vscode at commit 86f5a62f058 (VS Code v1.96, 2025-11-18) and maintained at xiezhongfu/vscode · made-editor.

What is this package?

monaco-editor-core-full is a superset of the official monaco-editor-core package. It ships all browser-side APIs intact — nothing is tree-shaken away.

The official monaco-editor-core applies aggressive tree-shaking (shake level 2, ClassMembers), which removes browser UI utilities that are not reachable from the standard editor entry points, such as vs/base/browser/ui/** and most of vs/platform/*/browser/**. This package retains all of those modules.

Why does this package exist?

When building custom editor surfaces that need to reuse Monaco's internal browser utilities (e.g. vs/base/browser/ui/list, vs/base/browser/ui/tree, vs/platform/contextview/browser, etc.) directly — without bundling them separately — the official package simply does not include them.

This package solves that by using a Files-level tree-shaking (shake level 0): every source file that is reachable from the entry points is kept in full, so all browser APIs are available for import at runtime.

Customisations over upstream

The following changes were made on top of the base commit (86f5a62f058):

| Commit | Description | |--------|-------------| | 7c1f780 | Added editor-distro-full gulp task: new entry-point recipe (monaco-full.usage.recipe), shake level 0, outputs to out-monaco-editor-core-full/ | | 168d2d4 | Added pre-built monaco-editor-core-full/ artefact directory (committed build output for direct consumption) | | 062386e | Renamed package to monaco-editor-core-full | | ded072c | Version bump to align with release cadence |

All changes are scoped to the build tooling (build/gulpfile.editor.js, build/lib/standalone.ts, build/monaco/monaco-full.usage.recipe) and the monaco-editor-core-full/ output directory. No editor source code under src/ has been modified.
