Better Comments
Better Comments is an extension used for writing human-friendly comments in your code, which is helpful for you and anyone who is reading source code (especially for teams). Descriptive, human-friendly comments save so much time for everyone involved.
With this VS extension, you can use the following characters after a double forward slash // to customize your comments:
! – For errors and warnings
? – For queries and questions
// – For strikethrough
TODO – For to-dos
ES7+ React/Redux/React-Native snippets
Snippets are an excellent add-on for productivity. A snippet is a collection of various extensions for the most commonly used programming languages. You can get a complete list of all usable snippets here.
Material Icon Theme
Icon themes help you differentiate files and folders. My favorite icon theme is Material Icon Theme.
One Dark Pro Editor Theme
Editor themes drastically change the look and feel of your editor. My favorite icon theme is One dark Pro.
GitLens
The GitLens is a great extension when working in teams that combines the capabilities of Git with VSCode. It allows you to see who changed the code, why did they change it, and when they changed it. It also allows you to explore the history and evolution of a codebase.
Auto Rename Tag & Auto Close Tag
These two handy extensions are simple yet exceptionally effective. They automatically provide a closing tag as soon as you write the opening one and rename both tags as you start renaming one. That allows you to spend more of your precious energy on things that matter, rather than trying not to forget to close or rename your tags.
Path Intellisense & NPM Intellisense
With over 4.2 million downloads, Path Intellisense helps you with the auto-completion of your imports. Why would you have to memorize the file’s entire path when this extension can do it for you? The same thing goes for the NPM Intellisense; instead of autocompleting the local paths, it autocompletes the paths of your NPM dependencies.
Visual Studio Intellicode
The Visual Studio IntelliCode extension provides AI-assisted development features for Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, and Java developers in Visual Studio Code, with insights based on understanding your code context combined with machine learning. As soon as you start typing something, this extension recommends completion for your code context at the top of the completions list.
