Welcome to your VS Code Extension

What's in the folder

  • This folder contains all of the files necessary for your extension
  • package.json - this is the manifest file that defines the location of the snippet file and specifies the language of the snippets
  • snippets/snippets.json - the file containing all snippets

Get up and running straight away

  • press F5 to open a new window with your extension loaded
  • create a new file with a file name suffix matching your language
  • verify that your snippets are proposed on intellisense

Make changes

  • you can relaunch the extension from the debug toolbar after making changes to the files listed above
  • you can also reload (Ctrl+R or Cmd+R on Mac) the VS Code window with your extension to load your changes

Install your extension

  • To start using your extension with Visual Studio Code copy it into the /.vscode/extensions folder and restart Code.
  • To share your extension with the world, read on https://code.visualstudio.com/docs about publishing an extension.
