Snippets

We've recently added code snippets to help our developers write code more efficiently.
Before you can get started with snippets, you need to inform Visual Studio where to find our snippets. Follow the steps below if you're unsure how to do that.

  1. Open the Tools tab in Visual Studio and select Code Snippets Manager (default shortcut: ctrl + k, ctrl + b).
  2. Choose a language from the first drop-down list. Currently, we only have snippets for C# and HTML code.
  3. Add the folder with our snippets. Locate the Online solution, navigate to the CDN project, and look for a folder named 2BASnippets. Select this folder.
  4. Click OK, and you're done! Access our snippets using the default shortcut ctrl + k, ctrl + x.

That's it. You're done!
You can now use our latest snippets as long as you keep your solution up-to-date!

Tips
  • If you can't find the folder in Windows File Explorer, open Visual Studio, access the Online solution, open the CDN project, and right-click on the 2BASnippets folder. Then select Open Folder in File Explorer.
  • Ensure you have added our snippets for both HTML and C#.
  • Make sure your solution is up-to-date before you start programming. If a new snippet is added or updated, it will automatically be visible or updated for you.
  • If you have an idea for a snippet or want to suggest an improvement, feel free to update/create a snippet, or click here and suggest it there!
