<tag + tab or simply tag + tab

I don't know of any specific auto complete for tags but I'm sure there is one or something similar.
I personally use one called Bracket highlighter which will highlight opening and closing brackets, which makes your code easier to troubleshoot.

Treehouse TeacherIn Sublime, you can just type for name of the tag + tab to get full autocomplete. For example, if you type div then press tab you get
<div></div>
The cursor is placed between the tags. This is even better than Dreamweaver, in that you only need to type 4 characters -- div + tab -- instead of 5 characters -- <div> -- to get the autocomplete.
