SnippetCraft - Custom Code Templates

SnippetCraft is a lightweight, persistent VS Code extension designed for developers and competitive programmers to create, store, and auto-complete custom code templates using simple keywords in seconds.

Features

• Quick Snippet Creation: Easily create and edit templates for any programming language directly from the Command Palette.
• Global Persistence: Your saved snippets are stored securely via VS Code's global state, making them available across all your local projects.
• IntelliSense Auto-Complete: Type your custom trigger keywords in any file, and your snippets will instantly appear in the auto-complete dropdown.

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code (Version 1.85.0 or higher)

Installation & Usage

1. Open the Command Palette using Ctrl + Shift + P (or Cmd + Shift + P on Mac).
2. Type and select SnippetCraft: Create or Edit Snippet.
3. Select your programming language (e.g., cpp, python, javascript).
4. Enter your custom trigger keyword.

   Important Keyword Restriction: Your keyword must not contain any spaces (e.g., use dsu, bfs, or binarysearch instead of my template). VS Code's auto-complete engine requires single continuous words to match properly.

5. Write or edit your code template in the opened editor tab.
6. Click the Save Snippet button in the bottom-right notification popup.
7. Open any file of that language, type your keyword, and press Tab or Enter to inject your template instantly!
