Snippets with multiple files
I often come across a need for multiple files within a single snippet. A common use case for me is I have a team that shares a package.json
along with a gulpfile.js
. Both of these files work hand-in-hand with using Gulp.
Obviously, this isn't specific to Gulp in any way, but I wanted to illustrate the need. I'm sure basically every node-based project could benefit. Please assign the feature proposal
label.
Design proposal
In preparation of #31128 (closed), these are our designs for snippets with multiple files. These already take over the new snippet design from #32714 (closed) and #31964 (closed).

Embedded snippet with multiple files
If there are multiple files in a snippets, these different files will render right below each other when embedded on another page. There won't be a way to embed a single file from a multi-file snippet.
