Bang your head! Tech stuff will drive you mad!

If at first you do not secede, bang your head on the desk a couple of more times. Then step back and look at it all again.

Trying to install custom HTML snippits in VS Code. Looks super easy. Follow the tutorial perfectly. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/userdefinedsnippets#_create-your-own-snippets

Go here.
Select HTML
Paste this in the json file that opens.
Save it.
Done.

Fails to work. OK, delete file and try again.
Fails again.
What the... oh wait. The html file I am trying it in is coming up as a django-html file. What if I pick django rather than html?
SUCCESS!
