What is VS Code?

Visual Studio Code is a popular open-source editor with rich AI and extension capabilities. With MCP (Model Context Protocol) support in Copilot Chat, VS Code can access external data sources and documentation to provide more intelligent coding assistance.

​
Why integrate DexPaprika with VS Code?

  • Real-time crypto data access - Live market data, pool information, and token prices while coding
  • Enhanced AI assistance - Copilot Chat can reference DexPaprika data for better suggestions
  • DeFi development workflow - Build faster with comprehensive blockchain data
  • Documentation context - Quickly reference our API docs and tutorials while you work

​
Step 1: Install MCP server with one click

Use the “Connect to VS Code” button in our docs to open VS Code and add the DexPaprika MCP server.
