VSCode Markdown Snippet Not Working

Creating a new markdown file for content is now easier with having the frontmatter as template. Although, it didn’t work for me out of the box.

Needed to add this snippet in the settings.json

1
{
2
  // ...
3
  "[markdown]": {
4
    "editor.quickSuggestions": {
5
      "other": "on"
6
    }
7
  }
8
  // ...
9
}

I used this snippet generator ↗️ to generate the snippet.

I just had to type out the prefix and press Tab

This works for both .md and .mdx files.
