🦆 DuckyScript Cookbook

Write DuckyScript with less friction, better hints, and a handy cookbook panel full of ready-to-use payload ideas.

DuckyScript Cookbook is a community-made extension for VS Code and VSCodium that makes DuckyScript easier to read, faster to write, and a bit more fun to work with.

Why install it?

Because plain text payload files deserve a little love too.

With DuckyScript Cookbook you get:

• syntax highlighting for DuckyScript
• autocomplete with inline command help
• snippets for common structures and commands
• a cookbook side panel with ready-to-insert payload recipes
• optional bundled light and dark themes
• support for standard editor themes too
• early support for newer Pager-related commands

What it feels like to use

Better colors, without forcing a theme

The extension highlights DuckyScript nicely even with your usual VS Code or VSCodium theme.

If you want the full cookbook vibe, you can also switch to the bundled DuckyScript Light or DuckyScript Dark themes.

Help while you type

Start writing and trigger suggestions with Ctrl+Space.

Commands, functions, and structures come with short inline explanations so you can stay in the editor instead of jumping back and forth between docs and notes.

A cookbook panel for quick payload building

Open the DuckyScript Cookbook view from the activity bar and insert recipe templates with a click.

It is especially handy when you want to:

• start from a working payload skeleton
• replace selected text with a recipe
• keep reusable building blocks close to the editor

Snippets that save repetitive typing

Loops, conditions, common commands, and reusable structures are quicker to drop in, tweak, and reuse.

Quick start

1. Open a .ds, .duckyscript, or compatible text file.
2. Start typing DuckyScript.
3. Press Ctrl+Space to explore commands and inline help.
4. Open the DuckyScript Cookbook panel from the activity bar.
5. Click a recipe to insert it into the active editor.

Great for

• learning DuckyScript a little faster
• building payloads without starting from scratch every time
• keeping recipes and snippets one click away
• writing in a cleaner, more readable editor experience
