        "<div>",
        "</div>",
        "<template>",

        "</div>",
        "</template>",
        "",
        '<script lang="ts">',
        "import Vue from 'vue';",
        "export default Vue.extend({})",
        "</script>",
      },
    },

      name = "Vue 3",
      template = {
        '<script lang="ts" setup></script>',

  },
},

Default Mappings

Mappings	Action
<leader>st	[S]witch [T]emplate
]m	Jump To Next Marker
[m	Jump To Prev Marker

File Variables

Currently you can use {F_NAME} to insert filename and {F_NAME_NO_EXTENSION} to insert filename without file extensions to your templates. More variables will be implemented depending on usage/request.

Jump Markers

You can place pipe | to mark a place on template to jump to that location with default or user given mapping.

TODO List

• Add switching places with <Tab> and <S-Tab>.
• Find a way to easily add indents to templates.
