VS Code React Component Generator

This VS Code extension simplifies the process of creating new React components within your TypeScript or TSX files.

IT IS STILL IN BETA VERSION

Features:

  • Effortless Component Creation:

    • Place your cursor within any .ts,.js,.jsx,.tsx file.
    • Execute the command (default: Ctrl+Shift+P > "Create React Component").
    • A new component file will be created in the same directory with the same base name as the current file.
      • For example, if you're in MyComponent.tsx or MyComponent.jsx, it will overwrite the content.
  • Basic Component Structure:

    • The generated component includes a basic structure:
      • A functional React component using the React.FC interface.
      • An empty div for rendering content.
  • TypeScript Support:

    • Seamlessly integrates with TypeScript projects, providing a solid foundation for type-safe component development.

Installation:

  1. Open the VS Code Extensions panel (Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Shift+X on macOS).
  2. Search for "React Component Generator" and install the extension.

Usage:

  1. Open any .js,.jsx,.ts,.tsx file in your VS Code workspace.
  2. Use the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P).
  3. Type "Create React Component" and select the command.
  4. A new component file will be created in the same directory.

Example Generated Component:

import React from 'react';

export const MyComponent = () => {
    return (
        <div>
        </div>
    )
};
