I'm in a web design class and writing HTML tags. I have not used VSCode prior to this, but I am told that it's supposed to have emmet built in and should extend my code when hitting tab. It does not, tab works like a regular tab button.
I tried various online solutions such as including html in the languages and turning on 'true' for emmet when hitting tab and it still doesn't work. Any idea how to get it to happen?

Adobe just slapped me with horrible news saying they will end support for the Brackets Editor and we need to switch to VS Code.
I wasted an hour already just to have auto-closing of tags to work.
Here is a video explaining exactly what I want.

I want to be able to have auto-close work for HTML elements in a PHP file like it does without issue on Adobe Brackets.
VS Code has a lot of extension for this kind of need. I personally use HTML Snippets.
Just navigate to extensions tab, search HTML Snippets then click install.
Please check this link for your reference. You can find some extension which could cater your needs.
I'm looking for a solution.
When I type some CSS inside VSC, the editor show me a list of possible choice. Then I select the desire one and the editor show me again a list of possible properties, but between all this properties their are some old one that are still use in web development if we want to make a website compatible with older browser.
I figure that some suggestion in VSC are display with strikethrought, so I'm looking to a solution to apply this to my personal snippets.
I've recently moved to Visual Studio Code from Sublime Text.
Something that I'm missing is the "automatic preview mode" (I don't know the exact name): in ST, if I navigate the files in the sidebar with the keyboard, every file is automatically opened in a (static) preview editor.
I couldn't find anything similar in VSC. The most similar functionality requires me to single-click, but I have two problems with this:
I'm a "keyboard-prevalent" user, and (single-)clicking defeats the purpose;
in ST this happens automatically, so it's faster anyway.
Am I missing something?
I've been searching for a while, but can't find anything relevant. It seems there are references to this functionality from Search Files (Ctrl+P), but I'm looking this functionality on the sidebar, since I use this while working on files of a single directory.
I've been using PhpStorm for awhile, for PHP as well as JS. I would love, however, to switch to VSCode since it's lighter, open source and free. But one feature that I cannot quite carry over with extensions is Code Style settings.
PhpStorm has a sweet visual interface in settings that allows you to set up detailed code style rules with live examples right there. ESLint, unfortunately, doesn't have anything similar - it's all text rules (which is a drag and takes forever to set up).
So I'm wondering if there's any way at all to export PhpStorm code style settings as ESLint rules? Or if there's an app that has a similar interface to set up ESLint? Or maybe there's a VScode extension that I am missing that has a similar interface?
I love chrome dev tool, it has been a huge productivity boost for me. I would love to find out if there is any plugin or way to get it to do auto-complete on javascript object (intelisense) and syntax highlighting in live edit mode? In the console you can press tab to complete a javascript object, property or method, but that does not seem to be available in live edit mode.
Thanks!
Auto-completion in the CodeMirror editor (should be enabled in the Settings) was landed yesterday behind a DevTools experiment "Enable text editor autocompletion" and should appear in the next Chrome Canary.
Regarding the syntax highlight, I'm not quite sure what your case is, since we always highlight JavaScript sources.
