I have recently seen quite a few articles showcasing VSCode setups. But they're mostly featuring popular plugins most of which I came across alread.
That's why I'm interested in your favourite obscure, lesser known or just plain awesome plugins. Self promotion welcome! ✨

I have been using ”bashdb” to step through git-secret a bash script wrapper to encrypt stuff in git using GnuPG tools. You can literally step though a complex bash script with Visual Studio Code and I found dead code and an old bug in the first step through.
Two that I took a while to stumble upon, and which I really like today are:
For me it's Console Wrapper, highlight any variable and hit Ctrl + Shift + Q and it will wrap the variable in a console log.
Bonus point, if you have a variable in your clipboard, it will wrap that variable if you haven't selected anything
I'm not sure if its ok to call 352k download as "underrated", but I believe Live Saas Compiler worth mentioning when compared to its capabilities and importance.
Definitely Quokka! Really useful for scamping up functions before dropping them into a bloating codebase. I use it a lot!

This makes me want to learn JS 😃
This one really interests me because I've watched the "Fun Fun Function" guy use it to treat VS Code as a kind of super repl.
😁 I'm pretty sure I found it from one of those videos! MPJ is awesome!
May be polacode
github.com/octref/polacode very helpful in sending snippets of your code
auto close tag and auto rename tag are also good extensions that are sometimes underrated.
