# Python Snippets for Zed IDE

A collection of Python snippets for the [Zed IDE](https://zed.dev) to improve your development speed and productivity.

## Features

This extension provides a comprehensive set of snippets for Python development, including:

- Package and import declarations
- Control structures (if, for, while, try/except)
- Function and method declarations
- Modern Python features (f-strings, type hints, dataclasses)
- Framework-specific snippets (FastAPI, Pydantic, Typer)
- Database ORM snippets (SQLAlchemy)
- Testing helpers (unittest, pytest)
- And much more!

## Installation

### Method 1

1. Go to Extensions menu in Zed IDE
2. Search for "python-snippets"
3. Click "Install"

### Method 2

1. Clone this repo:
```
git clone https://github.com/jctosta/python-zed-snippets.git
```
2. Go to Extensions menu in Zed IDE
3. Click "Install Dev Extension"
4. Select the folder you cloned

## Usage

To make snippets appear at the top of the completion list in Zed, add this setting to your Zed settings file:

```json
{
    "snippet_sort_order": "top"
}
```

Start typing the snippet prefix (e.g., `def`) in a Python file and press `Tab` to expand the snippet.

## Acknowledgments

This extension is inspired by and based on the excellent [Go Snippets for Zed IDE](https://github.com/ayberkgezer/go-zed-snippets) created by [Ayberk Gezer](mailto:ayberkgezer@outlook.com). Many of the snippet ideas, naming conventions, and file structure for this Python extension are derived from that project.

Special thanks to Ayberk Gezer for providing a solid foundation and reference implementation.
