Features

Providers

Autocompletion|snippet provider

When typing a variable/method name will give suggestions of how the variable should be spelled given the naming convention user chose (or by default camelCase) and given user's personal dictionary and english dictionary to keep the source code as consistent as possible.

If user accepts given suggestion it will be used to increase the values of the words in user's personal dictionary and users common dictionary in the given variable/method name, which will increase the accuracy of suggestions overtime.

When hovering over a variable name or method name will show a popup with a name of the naming convention of that variable/method.
