Error codes generator - VS Code Extension

Description

Error codes generator is a powerful VS Code extension designed to streamline your development workflow by providing tools for generating, formatting, and managing error codes and nomenclatures directly within your editor. This extension helps maintain consistency and clarity in your codebase, especially in large projects.

Features

• Generate Error Codes: Automatically create unique and standardized error codes.
• Format Error Codes: Ensure all error codes in your project adhere to a consistent format.
• Snippet for Error Generator: Use the erg snippet to quickly insert the "ERROR_GENERATOR" keyword.

• SRC_CORE_UTILS_001
• SRC_CORE_UTILS_002

Demonstration

As long as there are no codes, using the key ‘ERROR_GENERATOR’ with the command generates codes for all established positions.

If there is already a counter in the file, the last counter is analyzed to continue the sequence.

Using the command analyzes all the keys already established to restart the counter from th
