Everyone keeps talking about autocomplete but I've used it successfully for comments and documentation.

You can use vs code extensions to generate and update readme and changelog files.

Then if you follow documentation as code you can update your Confluence/whatever by copy pasting.

I also use it a lot for unit tests. It helps a lot when you have to write multiple edge cases, and even find new one at times. Like putting a random int in an enum field (enumField = (myEnum)1000), I didn't knew you could do that...

Yeah, I also find it super helpful with unit tests, saves a lot of time.
