Update (11/2/2023)
My recent lack of interest in Roblox development at the time and me learning the Unity engine has caused me to stop working on and updating this plugin (and doing development on this platform in general), and therefore, as a result, not much (if any) new stuff was added. But with my rapid development on a tower defense game (and motivating me further), it has sparked my interest in development on this platform again. Eventually I may come back to updating this plugin in the near future.
(Note: If you do not use the default script editor in Roblox Studio, you can ignore this plugin)
This is a plugin that allows code snippets to be quickly inserted into any script by using the new Script Editor API that was just released recently.
This is an idea I had envisioned when I heard about Roblox giving developers the ability to make script editor plugins.
I am aware of other code snippet plugins existing, but they don’t use the new script editor API.
Plugin in action:
The plugin also tells you whether its been enabled or not in the output (may change in the future):
It also even tells you the changelog upon loading into studio (may change in the future):
As of now, there are only 3 code snippets that are available. However, you can give me suggestions on what other code snippets should be included in this plugin.
Planned Features:
- Custom code snippets
- Edit built in code snippets
- Settings
To developers who want to contribute
Because this plugin is free, that means its open source. This means you can contribute to it
s development (or check the code if you really wanted to be sure it’s not doing anything malicious).
