JSDoc style comments can be inserted including automatic generation of @param and @return tags. File headers can be inserted with customizable copyright and license comments, or you can choose from a variety of built-in license texts.
This extension is best used as a companion to vshaxe which provides Haxe support for Visual Studio Code.
