Visual Studio Community for Mac is not a good tool for editing shader files. It's slowly improving. Very slowly. Sublime Text is better, but it's paid. Maybe I'll fork out the US$80 if it becomes a big deal, but for now I am not doing much custom shader writing. Still, I'd like better support for formatting and syntax highlighting. Does anyone have a good solution for this? Are there any good write-ups? Thanks.
I use VSCode which also works in OSX. (I actually use this for a lot of things, I like it a lot more than sublime text these days) VSCode for OSX https://code.visualstudio.com/ Add shader language support https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=slevesque.shader
