I’ve been trying to switch from Brackets to either Atom or VS Code for my primary code editor. Unfortunately, in both cases there’s one thing preventing me from making the leap: the autocomplete functionality in Brackets (and Dreamweaver) is far superior to anything I’ve found in other editors.

I’ve tried numerous mods/packages/extensions of course. There are some very good ones that autocomplete URLs as you’re typing new code, but none are very good at editing existing URLs, which is a significant part of what I need to do in my job.

The Brackets and Dreamweaver autocomplete is just too good for me to do without. I type a letter or two, make a couple clicks, and the entire URL has been replaced. I don’t need to delete anything or retype the tag or copy/paste.

Does anyone know how to duplicate this functionality in either Atom (my first choice) or VS Code?

Thanks!

PS: My main reasons for wanting to leave Brackets are that the UI (especially menus) is a mess, and the mod community seems kinda dead – most of the extensions I find haven’t been updated in years.
