Being able to “open as partial” and edit a partial in it’s parent context is very useful. In my case, I like to have a general layout then have all the pages based on that when doing website development. Yes, there is a master pages feature but when working with templating engines (like I do) having the entire html document structure in “sub-pages”.

Hi @resengola, likewise, I can see value there, for those use cases where you want to open a html based files dynamically within the context of another page at a dynamically chosen tag.

Also, Interested to know which templating engines you use.

Hey @TechAkayy ,

For JavaScript I use EJS and Handlebars.
