VS Code - How to enable Html tag attribute display

Question

I am new to VS Code and using it for Html editing. Is there a way to have the IDE show me a list of the attributes available for an Html tag? I do get Intellisense when I am typing a tag name and it will auto-close the tag, but there doesn't seem to be support for displaying the attributes specific to the tag. I can use Ctrl-Space to display a universe of attributes, but I'm looking for a list of the attributes from the official Html reference. Or maybe a tag-level help pane where it would display the tag information, including purpose, usage, attributes, etc.

Answer 1

Without installing an extension, I am getting a list of attributes when I press Ctrl + Space while inside an open tag like this <p .

There must be a space after the <p , so the tag name must be complete and the cursor separated from it by a space. If the cursor is still on the tag name, VSCode tries to autocomplete the tag name when pressing Ctrl + Space .

Answer 2

In VS Code it is showing attributes available in an HTML tag but it fails when showing/suggesting values for a specific tag. For that purpose, I am using this extension called "HTML CSS Support" by ecmel. But for the scenario mentioned in this question, You can get it done with @C14L 's answer. There may be other good extensions but this is the one I have tried and it works perfectly.
