Freemarker Tipster

freemarker tipster is an extension designed to enhance your experience with ftl files.

It allows you to quickly navigate to the definitions of macro and function variables you've written. Additionally, it provides completion tips while you are writing ftl files.

Features

Go to definition (macro and function)

Tip: Currently, only macros and functions defined in the same file are supported. Additionally, their names can contain letters, digits, underscores, dollar signs, and at signs, but the first character cannot be a digit.
