What problem does it solve?
Custom IntelliSense completion for Visual Studio extensions enables developers to add, customize, and integrate auto-complete suggestions within the editor across languages and MEF-backed extension points.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Supports VisualStudio.Extensibility (out-of-process), VSIX Community Toolkit (in-process), and VSSDK (in-process) for IntelliSense completion sources.
- Provides MEF-based registration, content-type scoping, and both modern async and legacy completion APIs to cover common extension scenarios.
- Includes guidance on implementing a completion source/provider, wiring through MEF, and troubleshooting common pitfalls to ensure responsive completion.
Quick Start
Create and wire an async completion source and provider for your target file type, register it with MEF, and enable it in Visual Studio.
