Many of the core components and extensions to Haystack live in their own repositories on GitHub. For example, the node debug adapter and the mono debug adapter repositories are separate from each other. Another example is the Pixi repository.

Haystack includes a set of built-in extensions located in the extensions folder, including grammars and snippets for many languages. Extensions that provide rich language support (code completion, Go to Definition) for a language have the suffix language-features. For example, the json extension provides coloring for JSON and the json-language-features extension provides rich language support for JSON.
