This extension will automatically convert single or double quotes to backticks when needed.
Just start typing a regular string, the extension will transform it into a template literal as soon as it detects placeholders (${}).
⚠️ Breaking Change: Since version 1.2.0, the revertEnabled setting has been renamed to enableRevert. Additionally, its default value has been changed from true to false. Please ensure to update your configuration accordingly.
