IntelliSense helps you write code faster and with fewer errors by providing information while you code.

IntelliSense helps you write code faster and with fewer errors by providing information while you code. As you work with client script in the JavaScript editor, IntelliSense lists the objects, functions, properties, and parameters that are available based on your current context. You can select a coding option from the pop-up list provided by IntelliSense to complete the code.

IntelliSense makes it easier to complete the following tasks:

  • Find member information.
  • Insert language elements directly into your code.
  • Maintain your context without having to leave the code editor.
  • Support custom IntelliSense with XML documentation comments and JavaScript IntelliSense extensibility.
