I replied to this in a separate post, but html() is likely a function name that is used in millions of existing code bases. Applying this rule to all of them will lead to too many errors to be acceptable to editors I think. And if this has to be explicitly configured in an editor very few will use it.
Understood. This string suffix syntax is supported by Python today and syntax highlighters could be modified to support this without requiring changes to any other component.
class Calendar(component.Component): template_string = '<span class="calendar"></span>' ##html css_string = '.calendar { background: pink }' ##css js_string = 'document.getElementsByClassName("calendar")[0].onclick = function() { alert("click!") }' ##javascript

PyCharm supports syntax similar to this. They put a # language=html on the line in front of the string. I think this is messy for the reasons in my original post, but maybe this is the only reasonable way forward. I'll see if I can ask the vscode python language extension team what they think. Nice to see you fixed the syntax error in the js too! :)
