How do I share my custom snippets with my colleagues through a repository? For example, sharing a javascript.json file.
I know it should go inside .vscode, but where exactly and with what exact config?

In the workspace .vscode folder create a file with extension .code-snippets and place your snippets inside. You can add a scope to limit the snippet to languages
.vscode/custom.code-snippets
{
// Place your workspace snippets here. Each snippet is defined under a snippet name and has a scope, prefix, body and
// description. Add comma separated ids of the languages where the snippet is applicable in the scope field. If scope
// is left empty or omitted, the snippet gets applied to all languages. The prefix is what is
// used to trigger the snippet and the body will be expanded and inserted. Possible variables are:
// $1, $2 for tab stops, $0 for the final cursor position, and ${1:label}, ${2:another} for placeholders.
// Placeholders with the same ids are connected.
// Example:
// "Print to console": {
// "scope": "javascript,typescript",
// "prefix": "log",
// "body": [
// "console.log('$1');",
// "$2"
// ],
// "description": "Log output to console"
// }
"Print to console": {
"scope": "javascript,typescript",
"prefix": "log",
"body": [
"console.log('$1');",
"$2"
],
"description": "Log output to console"
}
}

Thanks! After some more research based on your answer, I found the official docs: code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/…
