Import `.conf` files or `.tgz` archives\n- ⚡ **High Performance** - NEW RX parsing engine delivers 2-3x faster processing\n- 🎯 **Application Abstraction** - Automatically extract CS/LB/GSLB applications\n- 📊 **Smart Diagnostics** - 40+ rules for feature detection and analysis\n- 🔄 **AS3 Conversion** - Generate F5 AS3 declarations via FAST templates\n- 🖥️ **Interactive Webviews** - Monaco editor integration with live AS3 preview\n- 🌐 **Protocol Support** - HTTP, SSL, TCP, UDP, DNS, and more\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Quick Start\n\n1. **Install** the extension from the [VS Code Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=F5DevCentral.vscode-f5-flipper)\n2. **Open** a folder or click the browse button to select a NetScaler `.conf` or `.tgz` file\n3. **Explore** abstracted applications in the F5 Flipper view\n4. **Convert** applications to AS3 using FAST templates\n\n\u003cimg src=\"./images/flipper-2.gif\" alt=\"F5 Flipper Demo\" width=\"100%\"/\u003e\n\n---\n\n## 🎯 What It Does\n\nF5 Flipper helps you migrate from Citrix NetScaler/ADC to F5 technologies by:\n\n1. **Parsing** NetScaler configuration files into structured JSON\n2. **Abstracting** applications with all their dependencies (monitors, pools, certificates, policies)\n3. **Analyzing** configurations with diagnostic rules for feature detection\n4. **Converting** to F5 AS3 declarations ready for deployment on BIG-IP\n\n### Technology-Specific Diagnostics\n\nDiagnostic rules are prefixed by target F5 technology:\n- `XC-` - F5 Distributed Cloud\n- `TMOS-` - F5 BIG-IP\n- `NGINX-` - NGINX Plus\n\n---\n\n## 📝 Output Formats\n\n- **AS3 Declarations** - Declarative JSON for F5 BIG-IP deployment\n- **JSON Reports** - Complete configuration analysis and statistics\n- **YAML Reports** - Human-readable application summaries\n- **Application Views** - Interactive tree view with Monaco editors\n\n---\n\n## 🤝 Contributing\n\nWe welcome contributions!
