# SSMSMint | SSMS 19, SSMS 20, SSMS 21, SSMS 22 Productivity Addin
An SSMS plugin that streamlines SQL development with workflow enhancements.
As a SQL developer, I've encountered many of the shortcomings and limitations of SSMS. Looking for an opportunity to practice C#, I decided to create a tool that addresses the issues I personally faced.
I realize there may already be both free and paid tools out there that solve similar problems in one way or another. However, my main interest is in practicing C#, writing code, solving challenges on my own, and building something that helps me in everyday work.
I’ll be happy if others also find this tool as useful as I do.
# Supports
* SSMS 19
* SSMS 20

* Regions refresh: Instantly update all code regions using Ctrl+K, Ctrl+O or via the context menu.
* SQL script generation: Generate the SQL script for the object under the caret in a new window using Ctrl+F11 or the context menu.
* Object Explorer navigation: Jump to the corresponding object in Object Explorer based on the object under the caret with Shift+F11 or the context menu.

Restart SSMS after placing the files in the extension directory.
