More Info

A much smarter, drop-in replacement to the default Expand/Shrink Selection commands.

Currently supported languages:

  • Typescript (.ts, .tsx)
  • JavaScript (.js, .jsx)
  • JSON

For these languages, the TypeScript compiler is used to find smart selection expansions.

For unsupported languages, defaults to the original Expand/Shrink Selection.
