CORE FEATURES
─────────────────────────────────────────

✦ SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING
Full color-coded syntax highlighting for AMPscript and SSJS. Keywords, variables, strings, functions, and comments are each highlighted in distinct colors so you can read your code at a glance.

⚡ REAL-TIME LINTER
As you type, the linter checks your code for common errors: unclosed IF/ENDIF blocks, missing VAR declarations, unmatched brackets, and more. Errors appear inline so you catch problems before they reach production.

📚 89+ CODE SNIPPETS
A curated library of ready-to-use snippets covering the most common SFMC patterns:
• Data Extension operations: InsertDE, UpdateDE, UpsertDE, LookupRows, DeleteDE
• Control flow: IF/ELSEIF/ENDIF, FOR loops, nested conditions
• Email personalization: AttributeValue, subscriber data, dynamic content
• HTTP calls: HTTPPost, HTTPGet, REST API patterns
• Triggered Sends and Journey Builder interactions
• SSJS: WSProxy, Platform.Function, HTTP requests, JSON handling
• Date, string, encoding, and security functions
Each snippet can be inserted directly into the editor with one click.

🔍 99+ FUNCTION REFERENCE
A searchable reference for every major AMPscript and SSJS function. Each entry includes:
• Full syntax with parameter types
• Plain-English description
• Example code you can insert directly into the editor
Switch between AMPscript and SSJS with a single toggle.

🤖 AI COPILOT
Connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), or Google (Gemini) API key and unlock AI-powered assistance:
• Fix Syntax — automatically corrects syntax errors in your code

Your API key is stored locally in your browser and is never sent to any third-party server other than the AI provider you choose.

💾 SCRIPT LIBRARY
Save your scripts to a personal library and reload them at any time. Give each script a name and description so you can find it quickly. All data is stored locally in your browser.
