How do you do, to remember all those codes snippets? Does it take time to make it a habit?

For me, I prefer to use VIM, which removes the needs to remember snippets.

I don't know that's my feeling. What's your opinion?

It has just become second nature to me. I try to structure the snippet abbreviations in a way that is easy for me to remember. For example, “ush” stands for “Use State Hook” and “arrow” represents an arrow function. Idk it’s just how my brain works 🙃 The great part about snippets is that you can customize them how you like so if an abbreviation I have doesn’t make sense to you, it’s very simple to change.

I’ve been wanting to get better at Vim but I don’t have the time to dedicate to it right now. I used Vim a lot in college. It’s very cool so definitely stick with that if that’s what you like.

Yep customising the code snippets in VScode sounds cool and hacky. The only one that I use at the moment is the Emmet plugin. I feel remembering the different snippets become problematic when you need to switch between different languages because you are working on some other projects.

I always said that, but I ensure you that learning Vim will be your best bet.
