For issues relating to the creation, use, and maintenance of code snippets in Visual Studio Code

Overview

A snippet is a small region of re-usable source code, machine code or text. Ordinarily, these are formally-defined operative units to incorporate into larger programming modules. Snippets are often used to clarify the meaning of an otherwise "cluttered" function, or to minimize the use of repeated code that is common to other functions.
