Happy New Year! And with the new year, we've got new tools. Today we're excited to share a major upgrade to Aurelia's VS Code Extension.
With the latest version of Aurelia's VS Code Extension, you can now leverage enhanced view intelligence. Here are four features you can take advantage of today:
Binding Autocomplete
VS Code can now provide binding expression autocompletion inside HTML attributes and content. There's no more need to try to remember your data model or switch back and forth between files.
Element Autocomplete
VS Code can now autocomplete custom element names and their bindable properties in templates. With this update, there's no more need to remember element names. The extension will help you out by providing a completion list.
Goto Component Definition
When working inside a template, you can now jump to the code for custom elements used within that template.
Open Related Files
Are you working on components that span several files, such as JS, HTML, CSS, and tests? The Aurelia VS Code extension now provides a command to automatically open related files for a component. This works out of the box for people using TypeScript or JavaScript and can be configured using the setting "aurelia.relatedFiles" if you want a different setup. e.g. Using ASP.NET views '.aspx' instead of '.html'.
Along with the VS Code Extension release, we've had a number of additional fixes and improvements made to other Aurelia libraries recently. As usual, you can find the release notes below.
We're off to a great start for 2020! Stay tuned for even bigger announcements in the coming months :)
