LispSyntax.jl VS emmet

It turns out that Julia is ~a lisp, just with a weird syntax. If you look at the metaprogramming facilities, all expressions are first turned into s-exprs while parsing. There is no problem having a LISP syntax for Julia, and in fact this has been implemented! (https://github.com/swadey/LispSyntax.jl)

The REPL had a patch, https://github.com/swadey/LispSyntax.jl/issues/36, but for some reason it didn't get released 3 years ago when the patch was actually created.

Emmet is a content/code assist tool to write code faster and more efficiently. It comes standard with VS Code so there is no need for any plugin. The concept is simple: you start typing an Emmet abbreviation, press TAB or 'ENTER', and a full Emmet snippet for that abbreviation will come out.

Not equivalent, but arguably more useful for manual authoring: Emmet [0] was all the range a while back, and I still use it to write HTML. It comes naturally if you're used to writing CSS-like selectors, and mostly gets out of the way.

DSL-wise, I've rather enjoyed Clojure's Hiccup [1].

LiveCodes provides many of the commonly used developer tools. These include Monaco editor (that powers VS Code), Prettier, Emmet, Vim/Emacs modes, Babel, TypeScript, SCSS, Less, PostCSS, Jest and Testing Library, among others. All these tools run seamlessly in the browser without any installations or configurations. It feels like a very light-weight version of your own local development environment including the keyboard shortcuts, IntelliSense and code navigation features.

Emmet is a tool that allows you to quickly generate HTML and CSS code by using abbreviations and expanding them into full code.

One interesting plugin from that list is an amazing tool called Emmet, which helps you write HTML and CSS faster by using simple abbreviations that are then converted into code blocks. However, there is one minor drawback; by default, Emmet is not enabled for React in VS Code.

As you can see, emmet can help you avoid doing repetitive tasks. Please click here to find out more about emmet acronyms.

You might also consider adding snippets or Emmet support to your IDE. This will let you reuse existing templates that you use frequently so you don't have to waste time with the initial development.
