I just came across a simple yet awesome VS Code extension tonight care of Elijah Manor.
Basically it dims code that currently isn't selected. Here it is in action.
So what's an awesome VS Code extension you recently installed? 👨💻
P.S.: It's a bit out of date, but here's my VS Code setup for those interested.

Git Graph, now I don't have to jump into git kracken when things get dicey

Thanks for sharing! Didn’t know about this one. I usually use glog in zsh, or fork for a GUI.
Better Comments is fantastic for making particular comments more apparent.
Also Bracket Pair Colorizer, couldn't live without it.
For when you need it, I just installed SFTP and it works great!

This isn't really an extension, but I use it very often.
I was looking for something equivalent to Sublime's
panel focus, and there's a key map option, but it's not set to any key by default:View: Maximize Editor Group and Hide Side Bar(shift + alt + enter)View: Reset Editor Group Sizes(ctrl + shift + alt + enter)Read Time
It shows an estimate for how long it takes to read your Markdown.
EDIT
Picture is taken from this tweet (I hope that's ok)

I was amazed by the VSCode Python Debugger, you can run Python scripts more easily with breakpoints, variable analysis and a huge control and great data visualization, it is just too good to be ignored.
