Postfixer is a plugin for Sublime Text 3 that adds "postfix completions" to your coding workflow. The idea is simple: instead of wrapping an expression after you type it, you type the value or variable first, then add a trigger word afterward to transform it. For example, you might type a variable name and then append a keyword that instantly wraps it in a print statement or an if-condition, saving you from having to go back and add surrounding syntax. The plugin works by listening for a custom keyboard shortcut that you bind yourself. When you trigger it after typing a word and a postfix keyword, the plugin looks up that keyword in its snippet definitions and expands your text accordingly. It ships with examples for languages like Python and JavaScript, and you can write your own custom snippets through a dedicated settings file accessible from Sublime's preferences menu. After editing snippets, you reload them via the command palette or menu. This is useful for developers who spend a lot of time in Sublime Text 3 and want to reduce keystrokes for common patterns. If you frequently type the same wrapping structures, logging a variable, casting a type, or building out conditional blocks, this lets you do it in a single flow without moving your cursor back. It brings a feature popularized in IDEs like IntelliJ and ReSharper into the lightweight Sublime editor. The project is small and straightforward, with a MIT license and a manual installation process that involves cloning the repository into your Sublime packages directory. The README doesn't go into detail about which languages or completions are included out of the box beyond the Python and JavaScript examples shown in demo GIFs. You would need to install it and explore the snippet settings to see the full scope of what's available.
