Enable Emmet Support for React in VSCode

Emmet support is built-in into VSCode. But it does not work out of the box with react.
So you need to configure it such that javascriptreact is treated as javascript (At least that is that I think it indicates)

Go to Settings Via Cmd+, on Mac (or Ctrl+, on Windows)
Search for Emmet under Extensions (and then Search for Include on that page)

There are instructions/examples there. Use javascript as Item and javascriptreact as Value

Or Add the following to the settings.json (Open via Edit in settings.json link on that page)

   "emmet.includeLanguages": {
        "javascript": "javascriptreact"
    },
