Template Literal IntelliSense

Automatic syntax highlighting and IntelliSense for HTML and CSS in JavaScript/TypeScript template literals – no tags required.

Extension Demo

Features

Automatic Language Detection – Recognizes HTML and CSS without needing tagged templates Syntax Highlighting – Full TextMate grammar support for embedded languages IntelliSense – Auto-completion and hover information for HTML/CSS Zero Configuration – Works out of the box

How It Works

  • CSS: Detects selectors, @-rules, and property declarations

No configuration needed – just write your code naturally!
