Visual Studio Code user snippets not working

There are a couple of ways you can fix this problem. The problem is Intellisense is getting in the way or default putting your snippets at the bottom of the list.

First I played with the suggestion delay, but then I settled on having Intellisense put my snippets in the top of the list of suggestions with the snippetSuggestions user preference:

{
  "editor.tabCompletion": true,
  "editor.snippetSuggestions": "top"
}
