Template String Magic

Description

The "Template String Magic" extension for Visual Studio Code enhances your coding experience by automatically converting string literals with embedded expressions into template strings. This plugin increases productivity and reduces errors by providing seamless string manipulations directly within your code editor.

By default it will take effect on all files, you can specify that it will take effect on a particular file (please click on the lower right plus to add or remove), once a file is added, only these added file types will take effect

Features

• Automatic Conversion: Automatically converts string literals with ${} into template strings.
• Smart String Detection: Detects and converts only the appropriate string literals without affecting the rest of your code.
• Cursor Positioning: Maintains your cursor's position correctly after making conversions to ensure a smooth coding experience.

Motive

Inspired by the template-string-converter extension just to work around some bugs in template-string-converter, many of the bugs in issues are unfixed and using regular expression matching, there are issues with matching errors, so reimplementing these features using AST would be more Precise
