These snippets are to make life easier and faster then before using the Trongate framework. For sure, this will create a better experience and workflow.
The Trongate website is at Trongate website.
The Trongate framework can be downloaded on Github at Trongate framework
As a founding member at Speed Coding Academy, with Trongate, companion tools, and these snippets, there is no doubt you can create anything at lightning fast feeds!
Of course, recommendations are always appreciated inside the forum, if you would like some improvements. Folks at the academy, these are your passports to having lightning speed in the sky.
When you use these snippets with Sublime Text within HTML Files, or HTML within PHP, simply use the less than sign(<). As soon you start typing, it will display all the snippets. If it is directly within PHP itself, it should automatically show all of the Trongate Snippets as soon as you type.
Once the time is ripe, there are upcoming lessons, so stay tuned for that!
And for a more comprehensive view of the HTML snippets and ones I'm transferring to this Github account:
