SnipMate is a plugin that brings TextMate's snippet feature to Vim. Typing a trigger word and pressing Tab expands it into a predefined piece of code, and you move between placeholders with Tab to fill in values. Snippets are defined in a simple syntax in per-filetype .snippets files, and along with UltiSnips it is counted among Vim's leading snippet plugins.
