How to expand HTML tag by class name or id

[orklann]

Hello, great plugin.

Here is my question: How can I expand HTML tags like this:
.topic to expand as <div class="topic"></div>
#name to expand as <div id="name"></div>

How to write these two kinds of snippets?

Hi! Snippy currently doesn't support regex-based triggers, although other snippet managers, like Ultisnips, do.

Another option is to use emmet-vim, which supports expanding div.topic to <div class="topic"></div> and much more. It has its own set of mappings to expand or jump around, so it might take some time to get used to it. I've written a plugin that allows you to complete emmet snippets with nvim-cmp, so they work just like normal snippets.

There is also emmet-ls, which you might find useful.

Thank you very much for the suggestion on alternatives. I will keep using this plugin, it's so easy to use.
