The html snippit is included in Sublime Text 3 by default.

From an empty file, set the syntax to HTML (either by saving the empty file with a .html extension, or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command bar, and searching for "Set Syntax: HTML").

Then type html into the file, and press tab. Sublime Text should expand the snippet, giving you a basic HTML file with doctype, head, and body tags.

This does not work for me. I can type html and hit tab to get boilerplate html, but it is missing <!DOCTYPE html> at very top. Yes I have made sure the file type is html, and it is saved. I'm using version 2.0.2.

@Alyoshak I have updated the answer, it should work now you have to type : !html and then press tab.

@rahim.nagori Just tested with v3.2.2 and it works as per my instructions.
