❗ I have an idea!What if we added that into Atom? Atom already generates HTML with the syntax highlighting of your favorite theme and all. So why not just make a quick look with that? |

Hi everyone,
I recently created a package that you can use to add previews for custom file types on macOS 🎉
quicklookjs is a macOS Quick Look Previewing extension that displays a web page. All you need to do is replace this web page with your own custom preview, and re-package the extension with your app. The preview page uses JavaScript to access the file data — allowing you to leveraging your existing web expertise and build tooling.
You'll find more instructions in the README. I hope you can make some cool apps with this – please reach out with any questions, or just to let me know what you've created! 😄
Here's an example of how I integrated it with our Electron app, Foxglove Studio. It looks like this:
