Fancy Comments

About

Fancy Comments is a snippet pack designed to provide you with use-case specific comments, right from including a changelog table in your file to including a license snippet, to something as simple as including basic author information. The Fancy Comments Visual Studio Extension currently supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript, C# (CSharp), SQL and XML.

The Fancy Comments extends the code snippet manager of Visual Studio and allows you to insert code snippets into your editor. To insert snippets for the language you're currently writing in your editor, you can use the shortcut keys CTRL+K CTRL+X and then find Fancy Comments as a folder. Alternatively, to bring up the code snippet manager, use the shortcut keys CTRL+K CTRL+B.

How to get it

Download the Fancy Comments from the Visual Studio Marketplace or install directly from Visual Studio by searching for 'Fancy Comments' in the 'Extensions and Updates' window.

Feedback

Should you find certain snippets/features missing, feel free to create a new issue on GitHub and let me know what you’re after and I can include that in the product backlog for next releases. P.S. Please search existing issues first before creating a new one. 😃

Special thanks to the Snippet Pack Project Template by Mads Kristensen for making it easier to create a new snippet pack and providing a really helpful explanation.
