I'm a CS freshman and find myself always doing the same boring work: #include using namespace... So I decided to make it easier. And here is: A C++ snippet generator contains few lines probably needed by beginners.

Type "cppstd"(or even shorter) and press "Tab".

1. Install Visual Studio Code 0.10.1 or higher
2. Launch VS Code
3. Launch the command palette by using Ctrl-Shift-P (Windows, Linux) or Cmd-Shift-P (OSX)
4. Type in Install Extension and select 'Extensions : Install Extensions'
5. Type C++ Quick Start for Beginners
6. Choose the extension from the drop down
7. Reload Visual Studio Code

If you have any issues report them at Issues

This extension is mostly based on "HTML Boilerplate" (https://github.com/sidthesloth92/vsc_html5_boilerplate) Since I have done a little work, I don't want to keep any copyright, you only have to follow his one(MIT).
