IntelliSense and Code Navigation

What IntelliSense Provides

IntelliSense is the umbrella term for autocomplete, parameter hints, quick info and error squiggles driven by language servers. It turns a text editor into a smart development surface without being heavy.

Triggering It

Typing a dot or Ctrl+Space opens completion suggestions. Tab or Enter accepts; arrow keys browse. Snippets appear as completions too.

Navigation

• F12 - Go to Definition.
• Shift+F12 - Find All References.
• Ctrl+Click - Peek Definition.
• Ctrl+F12 - Go to Implementation.

The breadcrumbs bar at the top shows your current symbol hierarchy.

Refactoring

F2 renames a symbol everywhere in the workspace. Quick Fix (Ctrl+.) suggests actionable corrections like auto-imports and error repairs.

Debug IntelliSense Details

Problems panel (Ctrl+Shift+M) lists all diagnostics across files. Clicking one jumps right to the offending line.

Key Points

• Language servers give editor-grade intelligence.
• Navigation shortcuts move through code fast.
• F2 and Quick Fix automate refactoring.
• The Problems panel centralizes errors.
