Description
Intellisense is great for things like typeof, so why not make it great for boolean types too!
I think adding intellisense for booleans saves a bit of typing, and it still hasn't been implemented.
Look at this:
const a = (): boolean => true;
a() === // [true, false] intellisense prompt
const b = a();
if (b === /* [true, false] intellisense prompt*/)
I think this would be a great addition to Intellisense. Any feedback is appreciated.
