I create a snippet for my PHP laravel in SBT3

<snippet>

    <content><![CDATA[

dd("${1}",${1});

]]></content>

    <tabTrigger>dd</tabTrigger>

    <scope>source.php</scope>

</snippet>

When I typed dd

I see this now.

if I type more

notice it's wrong ?

It need have the $ like this

dd("nameofTheVariable",$nameofTheVariable);

How do I modify my snippet to escape the $?

My Answer:
You can escape the $ character in Sublime Text snippets by using a backslash (\) before it. Here's how you can modify your snippet to escape the $ character:

xml

dd("${1}",\$${1});
]]>
dd
source.php



By adding a backslash before the $ character in the snippet, Sublime Text will treat it as a literal character and not as a variable placeholder. This way, when you use the snippet, it will output the $ character as part of the code.
