Close Any Bracket

A Visual Studio Code extension to automatically close open braces, brackets, or parentheses in the right order.

You may find this particularly useful with callback-heavy languages or frameworks (e.g. jest, vitest) or in conjunction with Copilot tools that are inconsistent in the amount of context they close at the end of a completion.

Features

• Close last open (, [, or { (default shortcut Alt+], Mac: Control+])
• Close all open brackets to current indent - Checks the indentation level for the current line and closes all unclosed (, [, or { at this indentation level or deeper. (default shortcut: Alt+Shift+Enter, Mac: Control+Shift+Enter)
• Supports close to 300 languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, JSON, Python, Java, Go, C/C++/C#, HTML (with embedded JavaScript or CSS).

Limitations

• Brackets are inserted at the cursor position without any regard for aesthetics, so this works best if combined with automatic formatting.
• Some nested structures like template strings may not work well, in particular if the syntax is not valid while you're editing.
