Notes
Bootstrap 5 is currently in alpha and this extension should be considered in the same status. Unlike a lot of other snippets, this extension aims to balence user simplicity, with power and flexibility by keeping the total number of snippets to a minimum.
In terms of user simplicity, other Bootstrap 4 snippets have 5 different snippets for the grid, whereas this will have 3, but each is more powerful.
Roadmap
• v1.2.5 - Introduces Flex utilities, media-query and awesome awesome 4.7.0. • v1.5 - Each snippet with eventually have a gif demo (soon). • v2 - All base templates and several others will be one tab away, so consider sponsoring this or giving it a star.
Powerful, Simple, Flex Snippets
Center, position or reorder any element, by any default breakpoint with under 10 snippets.

Templates/Layout
Templates are just one tab away. Most of the official example templates have been implmented.

Powerful Utility Classes
There are two way to use utilities. 1. Class utilities, which use ! as a prefix. For example, if you want to add a utility class to an existing HTML element, inside of class=" " you would add class="!spacing" then hit tab and fill out the options, the default will be class="mx-auto" which sets margin to auto on left and right (x). 2. Wrapper elements, ex: b5-{txt,color,shadow,boder,spacing} which will create a div, p, h2 then allow you to tab through the options.
Trigger | Description
!spacing or b5-spacing | A single, powerful utility snippet. The default is mx-auto which adds margins on right and left. The options allow you to switch between (m)argin and (p)adding, x,y,(t)op,(r)ight, (b)ottom, (l)eft, etc. Read about the classes on the official bootstrap documentation. !shadow or b5-shadow | Useful whenever you want to make things look like paper or material design. Read about the classes on the official bootstrap documentation. https://v5.getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/utilities/shadows/ !font or b5-text | This intentionally uses two different names to differentiate between the class utility and the wrapper element. The options are responsive positions {|sm,md,lg,xl|}-${|left,center,right|}, line-height base,1,sm,lg}, font-weight normal,italic,weight-normal,weight-bold,weight-bolder,weight-light,weight-lighter ,and text-${6|none,lowercase,uppercase,capitalize|}, decoration and reset,break,monospace ! b5-border | change border attributes all border attributes.
