About Unreal Engine 4 Snippets
ue4-snippets package
Adds useful snippets for working with Unreal Engine 4 C++ Code. This is especially useful on Linux, as auto-completion in IDEs seems to fail a lot due to UE4s huge codebase. All snippets start with the letter _u_, so if you're looking for all the snippets, just type that and explore :)
Currently includes snippets for:
