uncommenting friendly-snippets does not work

[sqrtnull]

Describe the bug

just uncommenting rafamadriz/friendly-snippets does not work

To Reproduce

1. uncomment rafamadriz/friendly-snippets in the dependencies for nvim-cmp

Desktop

• OS: macos
• Terminal: alacritty

Neovim Version

NVIM v0.9.5
Build type: Release
LuaJIT 2.1.1703358377

Fix

add require("luasnip.loaders.from_vscode").lazy_load() when setting up cmp
(maybe also add rafamadriz/friendly-snippets to the dependencies for LuaSnip)

Yes, you still have to do the setup for friendly snippets -- could maybe be noted better in the documentation though. Do you want to send a PR w/ a description to add?

Since my PR was closed and I don't have any better ideas, here is an explanation on how to solve this for anyone with the same problem. Add the line
require("luasnip.loaders.from_vscode").lazy_load()
below the following code. (since the old kickstart had the same line here)

kickstart.nvim/init.lua

Lines 650 to 654 in b529bc3

	config = function()
	-- See `:help cmp`
	local cmp = require 'cmp'
	local luasnip = require 'luasnip'
	luasnip.config.setup {}

also maybe just read https://github.com/rafamadriz/friendly-snippets

@VlaDexa had a really smart suggestion, which we just merged. Should make this easier!

I have a config forked from latest Kickstart (https://github.com/feakuru/nvim-config), and when I try to uncomment the friendly-snippets section there, the snippets for Python, HTML or JS don't seem to show up in completions. Am I missing some additional steps?
