FlintFiveM

Write FiveM boilerplate by typing its name.

Type a trigger in a .lua / .js file, press space or enter, and the code lands in the file with the resource name already filled in.

Triggers

Trigger	Language	What you get
`flint:vrpsetup`	lua	vRP `Proxy` + `Tunnel` interfaces, a menu, and `registerMenuBuilder`
`flint:vrpmenu`	lua	One vRP menu + the builder entry that opens it
`flint:qbsetup`	lua	QBCore `GetCoreObject` boilerplate (server or client, picked from the file)
`flint:qbtarget`	lua	qb-target box zone on coords and a spawned npc, both targetable
`flint:create`	lua	`CreateThread` with `while true`, dynamic wait, marker and `[E]`
`flint:nuiready`	lua	`SetNuiFocus`, `SendNUIMessage`, `RegisterNUICallback`, `onResourceStop`
`flint:nuireadyjs`	js / ts / html	message listener, `fetch` helper, escape-to-close

Three ways to fire it

Type it — flint:qbtarget then space or enter. The trigger is swallowed and replaced by the code.
IntelliSense — start typing flint: and pick from the list (Tab / Enter).
Press something — Ctrl+Alt+F (or the ⚡ Flint button in the status bar) opens a picker with every snippet. Everything is in the command palette too, under FlintFiveM.

After inserting, Tab jumps through the placeholders (coords, event names, labels).

Resource name

The generated code is namespaced automatically. The extension walks up from the open file looking for fxmanifest.lua or __resource.lua and uses that folder name, so editing [Players]/1n7_Hud/client/client.lua gives you events called 1n7_Hud:client:example. Override it with flintfivem.resourceName.

Settings

Setting	Default	Meaning
`flintfivem.autoExpand`	`true`	Expand on space / enter. Off = IntelliSense and commands only.
`flintfivem.prefix`	`flint:`	Change the trigger prefix.
`flintfivem.resourceName`	`""`	Force a resource name instead of auto-detecting it.

Adding your own

Templates are plain text files in templates/, one per trigger. @@RES@@ is the resource name, @@PASCAL@@ its PascalCase form, and @@1:default@@ / @@1@@ / @@0@@ are the Tab stops. Register the new file in lib/templates.js and add a command in package.json.
