User Story snippets and highlighting

A simple package which extends the atom editor with syntax highlighting and snippets for user stories. Pretty much work in progress.

Highlighting

The format currently supported follows the textbook style format.

As a <ROLE> I want <GOAL> so that <REASON>.

You can deviate a bit from the version above. All examples below would be recognized by the parser:

# Some feature
As a USER I would like to have syntax highlighting for user stories so that I can better visually parse them.
The user would like to have syntax highlighting for user stories so that he can visually parse them.
a user would like to have syntax highlighting

The representation in atom using the solarized-dark syntax theme:

Snippets

Currently three expansions are offered:

• asn will expand to As an {ROLE} I want {GOAL} so that {REASON}.
• asa in turn will expand to As a {ROLE} I want {GOAL} so that {REASON}.
• ast expands to As the <ROLE>, I want <GOAL> so that <REASON>.

Autocomplete

There is autocomplete support for the users role.
