VS Code Snippet - Change position of linked tabstops-CodePudding

I am currently switching from IntelliJ to VS Code for a project and want to take some of my custom live templates with me.

VS Code supports "User Snippets", but I can't get them to work like they do in IntelliJ.

I want to achieve the following output:

console.log('variableName', variableName);

Now the thing is, I want my cursor to start right after the , so I get IntelliSense for auto completion of a defined variable. Then that variable name should be placed in the string.

I am right at the start and know that tabstops with the same ID get the same value:

    "console.log variable": {
        "scope": "javascript,typescript",
        "prefix": "cl",
        "body": [
            "console.log('${1}', ${1});",
            "$0"
        ],
        "description": "console.log variable with name"
    }

The problem with this is though, that the first tabstop is the start of the snippet and since I am inside a string I don't get IntelliSense for the variable name.

Is there a way to reverse the tabstop order of linked tabstops or anything similar that helps with the problem at hand?

"Print to console": {
  "prefix": "clog",
  "body": [
    "console.log('${1:variable}', ${1:variable});$0"
  ],
  "description": "Log output to console"
}

Works but you have to press Ctrl Space to get completion items.
