Recently, I was at the Boryspil Airport, Ukraine, working on a blog article when suddenly my VSCode stops working. It actually got crashed! Not o...

You should use vscodium, it's vscode without Microsoft's telemetrics.
The question is, do you really have to go that way though?
I had this question, and frankly the quality of the app justifies for me the telemetry MS get from my use which I hope helps feedback for improvements.
However I think it is very cool that MS provide a pure FLOSS version for anyone so concerned.
That said, I don't know why anyone would say you SHOULD use one over the other, but the choice is there.
I think, it's not only for improve user experience, Google steal your personal data, Apple, Microsoft too. So why with vscode Microsoft don't steal your personal data. It's no longer about Microsoft. I think it's about ethical.
(I'm sure I do some fault, I'm a french teenager sorry)
I have heard about it. Haven't tried it. Are you using it in your daily workflow? If yes, please let me know more about experience.
It's exactly the same, nothing changes a MS engineer say "When we [Microsoft] build Visual Studio Code, we do exactly this. We clone the vscode repository, we lay down a customized product.json that has Microsoft specific functionality (telemetry, gallery, logo, etc.), and then produce a build that we release under our license.
When you clone and build from the vscode repo, none of these endpoints are configured in the default product.json. Therefore, you generate a "clean" build, without the Microsoft customizations, which is by default licensed under the MIT license".
So vscode and vscodium are the same, but one are really ethical. BTW, the only thing vscodium do not, it's to add to the path the code command.
I did not know about this. Thank you!
I use vscodium 60h per week and it's only pleasure.
What about asp.net core debugger?.I think it's not such a things in foss.
Also y believe your intention are good but "you should" it's a little imperative
The aspnet debugger is an external extension so isn't affected by vscodium, right? Vscodium doesn't protect you from telemetry in extensions i assume.
Sorry about "you should" I'm French and it's maybe not the right word
Hey dude! No worries. :)
Nice list. One extension I can't live without is Settings Sync.
Me too 😄
Whenever I'm working with front-end outside of React, I like to use this extension called Live Server, which basically creates a little server with the HTML file you're editing and auto-refreshes it whenever you save :)
Also, Code Runner helps me a lot when I need to run snippets on the fly, it supports a lot of languages.
Yeah, I did have live server on my previous config but I find myself using serve (from CLI) more than any other package.
You should hyperlink all the extensions you mentioned.
but why?! Just copy & paste
Because that's what computers are for, automation. And because I am on my mobile phone.
I use so many great extensions, and still I've found a few in your list that I wasn't using. Thanks!
Glad to hear that this post could be helpful:)
Same here
good day dear Aman Mittal well this is unexpected - i am very glad to read your ideas. - , great and overwhelming - i appreciate your text it is very very good .
i am happy to read your text - i like it very much. Can you give us more hints to run VSCode or VSCodium on mx-linux:
cf : I use VSCode daily and it is widely used, i am shocked it is not in stable repo. Please add VSCode to the package list.
see more here: forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=...
you are invited to add your ideas to the thread.
well we look forward to hear form you -regards tarifa

if you like purple themes you should try "Shades of Purple".
for me (react developer) setting up vs code is easy, just install "React Food Truck 🍔" and let the extension collection do the work for me.
I use VS Code for Front end a few years I think, but it's still the pain for working with Back end like Rails a little bit. But I'm trying to switch from RubyMine.
hello and good day.
i am on mx-linux, and i just have setup a php-development-environment.
i just have installed PHP on the machine. Now i need to add a editor and yes: since vscode is used by a increasing number of folks i think i have to try out.
btw: what about setting up vscode as a php editor - sensu blog.theodo.com/2019/07/vscode-php...
is this a recommended way to go!? i have installed vscode on my machine now i want to setup it as a editor for the work with php.
i will have a closer look at the options.
Thank you for taking the time to put this together. You have helped a lot of people, including me!
Thank you so much for such a kind comment :)
Now with default config + Django pluggin :D
Great config Aman, I use GitLens too!
Git Lens is really useful
I think you also don't have to install emoji extension, since all desktop OS have their own emoji picker.
Not sure about Linux, but both MacOS and windows do have an emoji picker.
I am on macOS and yes, it does have one. But I like the ease of using slack style emojis (using colon). Check it out, if you haven't yet.
That's true, the ease and power come with a
:😄.Great write-up!
How did you find the experience of writing those to extensions? Was there much involved in getting them listed?
