ES6 JavaScript Snippets for Visual Studio Code

$1 is where the snippet begins and $0 is where the snippet ends.

// CommonJS
const $0 = require('$1'); // req
module.exports = $0;      // mex

// ES6 Modules
import $0 from '$1';            // imp
import '$0';                    // imn
import { $0 } from '$1';        // imd
import * as $1 from '$0';       // ime
import { $2 as $0 } from '$1';  // ima
export                          // ex
export default $0;              // exp
export function $1() {$0}       // exf
export function $1($0) {}       // exfn
export { $0 } from '$1'         // exd
export { $2 as $0 } from '$1';  // exa

// Console
console.log()          // cl
console.log("$1", $1)  // clo

Overview

This ES6 JS extension on github (also ES6 JS extension on the vscode marketplace) is a snippets pack largely inspired by other extensions but with a few of my own twists and added snippets. I use the vim extension so a lot of my snippets are likely biased towards vim users (I use "o"/"O" & "j"/"k" to jump around).

How-to

  1. You use each snippet by typing out the snippet name (i.e. req) and then hitting TAB on your keyboard.
  2. The file extension must be in one of the supported file types for these snippets to work.
  3. Some snippets have multiple steps you can cycle through by repeating TAB.
  • TAB moves you forward one step
  • CTRL + TAB moves you back one step
  • CTRL/COMMAND + SPACE will show you your autocomplete menu (brings up snippets)

Supported File Types

  • JavaScript (.js)
  • TypeScript (.ts)
  • JavaScript React (.jsx)
  • TypeScript React (.tsx)
  • Html (.html)
  • Vue (.vue) (Vetur extension required)
