C Make Folder Creator Extension for Visual Studio Code

The C Make Folder Creator extension for Visual Studio Code allows developers to create a new folder with a specified file inside. It prompts the user for a file name, and it automatically creates a folder and a corresponding file with the provided name inside the opened workspace. This extension is helpful for quickly setting up project structures or creating new files without manually creating folders and files.

Features

• Prompt user for a file name (without extension).

3. Enter File Name:

   • The extension will create a folder and a file named {filename}.cpp inside the opened workspace.

4. File Content:

   • The created file will contain a basic C++ template:

   #include <iostream>
   
   int main() {
       std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
       return 0;
   }
