How to type Code Fast | Emmet

Are you into Web development and you spend hours and hours typing out all the codes and putting in a lot of efforts into it?

Ever thought of reducing the number of hours you put into coding and make your work easy and work on multiple projects at once, this blog will help you in a lot of ways.

Emmet (formerly Zen Coding)is a set of plug-ins for text editors that allow for high-speed coding and editing in HTML, XML, XSLT, and other structured code formats via content assist. 

The project was started by Vadim Makes in 2008 and continues to be actively developed by Sergey Chikuyonok and Emmet users. Since 2015 Mikael Geletsyan is responsible for UX at Emmet. The tools have been incorporated into several popular text editors, as well as some plug-ins developed by the Emmet team and others implemented independently. 

How Emmet Works?

Emmet uses CSS-like selector syntax, You write CSS-like abbreviations, place your cursor at the end of abbreviation, and then press Tab, Ctrl+E, or any other keyboard key configured to expand abbreviations into actual HTML code. Emmet expands a into . You can also specify values, but if you don’t specify values, will produce with tab stops inside each empty attribute. You can insert a target URL and hit Tab to go to the next edit point, where you can insert the next desired value.

However, Emmet is primarily independent from any text editor, as the engine works directly with text rather than with any software.

The HTML Pair Matcher allows users to locate the matching open/close tag for the tag at the current cursor position. Unlike other HTML pair matchers, Emmet searches from the cursor's current position rather than scanning the document from the beginning.
