VSCode Dictionary Completion

version installs GitHub Workflow Status

Dictionary completion allows user to get a list of keywords, based off of the current word at the cursor.

This is useful if you are typing a long word (e.g. acknowledgeable) and don't want to finish typing or don't remember the spelling

        "other": true,
        "comments": true, // !!!
