Visual Studio Code Snippets in Source Control

Question

I would like to check a vscode typescript react snippet file into source code so that these can be distributed to developers.

At the moment, I'm editing a global snippet file under -[user]/AppData/Romaing/Code/Snippets/typescriptreact.json - so this works great for me locally. It would be even better if I could check this into my application code.

Any suggestions are appreciated -

Cheers

You can check an extension.json file in under a .vscode directory in source which is all well and good. You can then reference an extension recommendation so when developers open VSCode, this will be listed as an option for them. However, I haven't been able to achieve a checked-in custom snippet file. — Appa

You can check-in a .vscode/{filename}.code-snippets file which is interpreted as a JSON file. This can be used to define multi-language user-defined snippets. VSCode has documented it here.
