Hints

You can use some of these snippets to wrap a text fragment with a tag. To do that select the text and choose Wrap With Abbreviation... from Zen Coding menu. This works for tags which have an ending tag, like {% if %} {% endif %}.

You can use the Tab key to move the cursor to next logical position. For example use the for snippet and hit Tab to see how the cursor moves.
