Is there the option to "execute snippets" right away in vscode, meaning without having to press tab? This is really the only thing holding me back from vscode because in vim I can simply configure it, so e.g. if I have a snippet which gets triggered if I type test it automatically replaces test by the snippet content without having to press any extra key like tab. Is this possible in vscode?

  • See the extension `HyperSnips`. – Mark Jun 06 '21 at 15:38
  • @Mark wow this seems very similar to UltiSnips, interesting! – Kaisan Jun 22 '21 at 20:43
  • I'm sure it is a "port" of some sort. If you search for HyperSnips here on SO, you will see a few questions that I and others answered that should help you. Particularly https://stackoverflow.com/a/62562886/836330 although that is sort of a complicated example. – Mark Jun 22 '21 at 22:59
  • Oh thanks, but somehow I can now expand snippets instantly, when I don't add any additional flags they won't expand when pressing tab. Any idea why this could happen? – Kaisan Jun 23 '21 at 11:01
  • No, I have seen the exact same thing with that extension. Someone should file an issue on it. – Mark Jun 27 '21 at 21:23
