Download this extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace or get the CI build.
This extension makes it easy to surround the selected text with either quote- or brace pairs.
Simply select some text and then hit they regular key for a quotation mark or brace. That will automatically insert the closing quote/brace at the end of the selection.
If you enjoy using the extension, please give it a ★★★★★ rating on the Visual Studio Marketplace.
Should you encounter bugs or if you have feature requests, head on over to the GitHub repo to open an issue if one doesn't already exist.
Pull requests are also very welcome, since I can't always get around to fixing all bugs myself. This is a personal passion project, so my time is limited.
Another way to help out is to sponsor me on GitHub.
