As developers, we constantly juggle multiple languages, frameworks, and tools in our day-to-day work.

That's where the Ctrl+Alt+Cheat extension for VSCode comes into play.

What is Ctrl+Alt+Cheat?

Ctrl+Alt+Cheat is a powerful Visual Studio Code extension designed to simplify your coding experience by providing quick access to cheat sheets for various programming languages and frameworks.

Key Features

1. Extensive Cheat Sheet Collection

Ctrl+Alt+Cheat comes with an impressive collection of over 61 cheat sheets, covering a wide range of languages and frameworks. Whether you're working with PHP, JavaScript, Vue, React, Laravel, Docker, MySQL, Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, C++, Curl, CSS, Chmod, or other popular technologies, you'll find everything you need in one place. The cheat sheets are designed to be concise yet comprehensive, providing quick reference to the most commonly used commands and snippets.

2. Search Functionality

One of the standout features of Ctrl+Alt+Cheat is its intuitive search functionality. With a simple search input field, you can quickly find the exact code snippet or command you need from any selected cheat sheet. This feature saves you from wasting time digging through documentation or scrolling through endless lines of code. Just type in a keyword, and the relevant snippet is right at your fingertips.

3. Customizable Cheat Sheets

In addition to the pre-built cheat sheets, Ctrl+Alt+Cheat allows you to create and manage your own custom cheat sheets. This feature is perfect for developers who want to keep track of specific snippets or commands that are unique to their projects. You can easily add new cheats, edit existing ones, or delete entries as needed. This flexibility ensures that your cheat sheets are always up-to-date and tailored to your workflow.

4. Alternatives for Popular Libraries

One of the unique aspects of Ctrl+Alt+Cheat is its alternative cheat sheets for popular libraries and frameworks. For example, if you're using Moment.js, you'll find a cheat sheet that provides equivalent snippets in vanilla JavaScript, date-fns, dayjs, luxon, and Temporal. Similarly, if you're working with jQuery, there's a cheat sheet with alternative snippets in vanilla JavaScript. These alternative cheat sheets are incredibly useful for developers looking to transition away from older libraries or explore new ones.

Suppose you’re working on a project that involves date manipulation using Moment.js. With Ctrl+Alt+Cheat, you can quickly access the Moment.js cheat sheet by typing "Moment" in the search bar. Need to format a date? Type 'format' and instantly find the code snippet you need.

But what if you’re considering moving away from Moment.js? Ctrl+Alt+Cheat has you covered with alternative cheat sheets that provide equivalent snippets in vanilla JavaScript, date-fns, dayjs, luxon, and Temporal. This feature makes it easy to transition to more modern libraries without losing productivity.

Custom Cheat Sheet Demo

Creating and managing custom cheat sheets is just as straightforward. If you have a specific snippet or command that you frequently use, you can add it to your custom cheat sheet with just a few clicks. You can organize your snippets however you like, making sure that everything you need is right where you expect it.

Apologies for the confusion! I mistakenly mentioned the wrong discount code in the article. The correct code is FIRSTLAUNCH (all caps). Please give that a try, and it should work. Thank you for bringing this to my attention! If you have any other issues, feel free to reach out.
