React CSS modules
VS Code extension that enables CSS modules IntelliSense for your React projects written in TypeScript/JavaScript.
Currently supports CSS, SCSS, Less modules
This extension also supports CSS language features which are not supported by built-in VS Code code CSS language features. Check CSS language features for more info
Capabilities
This extension is unique in terms of support for major types of Casings and different types of CSS class selectors
Different types of selectors are supported
- Root selectors
- Nested selectors
- Suffixed selectors (SCSS only)
- Deeply nested suffix selectors
- Pseudo Classes
- Pseudo Class functions
Almost all project scaffolders such as Vite, Next.js and CRA add css module declaration to the project by injecting it in a .d.ts
file (for instance inside node_modules/vite/client.d.ts
added by Vite). TypeScript treats these definitions as definition provider for Style properties. This results in a useless definition result when VS Code Go to Definition
is triggered. Check this issue.
This extension gives you an option to eliminate the useless results by using the TypeScript plugin typescript-cleanup-defs that can filter out those definitions results. Check the plugin for more details.
Override this plugin using the setting reactTsScss.tsCleanUpDefs
