Visual Studio代码Intellisense方法定义Javascript

Question

Apparently no one else has wanted this feature, or I'm missing something. Intellisense works as normal, but I'm wondering if I'm missing a setting somewhere, if there is an extension, or if this functionality just isn't offered in VS Code... I would like to have the purpose of the method display when I start typing it as you can see in Adobe Brackets:

As opposed to how it shows in VS Code(which just shows the parameter requirements):

Is this possible?

VSCode is able to use the typescript language server to infer some information about the javascript that you're writing. The types for window/document etc are provided by the typescript team.

Here's where the type information for elements comes from. Compare that with the types for the document object . Notice that the properties here have comments above them, while the element properties do not. Type document.getElementById in VSCode, you'll see extra info like you do in brackets:

So for this information to appear about properties on Element s, someone would need to go through and add the comments. I have no idea if the typescript team is open to this, though.
