Frontend Code Helper

A lightweight VS Code helper for common frontend development tasks.

Features

  • Copy the current file path together with selected code.
  • Copy the whole file when no text is selected.
  • Open lightweight development notes from a configured HTTPS text URL.
  • Copy the latest notes directly to the clipboard.

Usage

Copy Path with Code

Select code in the editor and press:

  • Windows / Linux: Ctrl+Alt+C
  • macOS: Cmd+Alt+C

If nothing is selected, the full file content is copied.

Example:

src/components/Button.tsx

```tsx
export function Button() {
  return <button>Save</button>;
}

### Notes

Open the Command Palette and run:

- `Frontend Code Helper: Refresh Notes`
- `Frontend Code Helper: Copy Notes`

The notes URL can be changed in VS Code Settings:

```text
frontendCodeHelper.notesUrl

Only HTTPS URLs are supported.

Notes

The extension is intentionally small and uses built-in VS Code and Node.js APIs only.
