I've noticed several VS Code extension posts and have been thoroughly disappointed with the mentioned extensions with the exception of a couple so ...
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
Some other useful extensions are
ESLint: For linting your javascript code,
Serverless: For working with serverless projects(Azure, AWS, GCP),
Serverless-Offline: For testing a serverless project on your localhost
Material Theme & Material Icon Theme: Beatiful theme and icons
Window Colors: Gives every VSCode window a diferente window color
Hey Jefry,
Big fan of Material Theme & Icons but, recenetly switched it up to Code Blue.
I have ESLint but some like JSHint instead, or other linters, so I left it out.
Windows Colours looks helpful as well - will need to check that out!
I found one really cool vscode theme named Jellyfish-x-retro theme.. Do checkout! ππ
Serverless-offline is an extension? Haven't found it in the marketplace.
My bad. It is an NPM package, serverless is a NPM package too.
Is Rainbow Brackets superior to Bracket Pair Colorizer 2?
NPM Dependency seems vastly inferior to Version Lens, which in addition to better UI even supports a few other repositories like dotNET core.
Will be looking into Better Comments.
And Prettier > Beautify.
The code plugin beautifully integrates with the same config your git hooks can use, and generally has better and more deterministic formatting.
Hey Mihail,
I haven't specifically tried BPC-2 but it appears to do the same thing - the only difference I can tell is that Rainbow will highlight in red the isolated right bracket so you always know where you currently are inside any set of coloured brackets. That being said I'm giving BPC-2 a try right now!
Didn't even know of Version Lens - you're right it's way better. Updating list.
I had Prettier for a while but out of the box, it couldn't handle HTML markup inside
.js/.ejstemplate files and was driving me crazy - Beautify gives an option to treat unknown markup as "HTML, CSS, JS" regardless of file ending from a Prompt dropdown.What is "HTML markup in
.jsfiles"?It does script/css in html, jsx inside js, and any language it supports as a tagged code block inside markdown by default.
If your file IS valid HTML, but also contains for example moustache tags in the text node positions, you can set a configuration override for your extension of the parser option.
Edit: I looked up what
ejsis, and there is, indeed, no support. Does your plugin beautify it by parsing it as pure HTML?Hey Mihail,
That's correct when Beautify hits markup it wasn't expecting (like HTML inside a
.js/.ejsfile as EJS templating can handle this) it lets you pick how to handle it. Very nifty.I love Bracket Pair Colorizer! I just discovered 2 today, making the switch now. For what it's worth, the marketplace shows Rainbow Brackets hasn't been updated since 2016, meanwhile Bracket Pair Colorizer 2 was updated just yesterday. That being said, it still has the beta label, so take that for what it's worth.
I add:
All great additions, I also have npm/path intellisense but not everyone uses NPM so I decided not to add it.
Never headr of indent-rainbow that I'll have to check out for sure!
I used to have Auto Close Tag but I found it rather annoying when doing templating partials.
If you think of others I'll check 'em out!
Settings Sync my fav
It's a great extension. So simple, but I totally take it for granted when I don't have it and need to re-install everything from memory. :(
I have automated the installation in windows with boxstarter + choco and later I use code CLI for extensions.
Great suggestions, use some of these many times a day! If you do a follow up story for 2020, please consider this new extension: marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...
Whoa this looks awesome! Will check it out and see if it makes the cut for my 2020 post. ;)
Faster Coding
'1' - you wrote "CSS Peak" instead of *CSS Peek.
Great article sir.
Nice catch! That I did... corrected!
Prettier should be on the list as well
Hey Manish,
While I am also a big fan of Prettier, I can't personally recommend is as I had many headaches using it with some static site generators that use HTML markup inside
.js/.ejsfiles. Beautfy has .ejs file support and can format HTML markup inside.js-based templating files.Al have you tried the latest version of Prettier?
No, but after seeing your comment I checked the changelog and it appears they have support for HTML template literals!
I'll give it another look if I can get my proper formatting inside
.ejsfiles!Possible typos:
your
Brackets
Corrected! Thanks.
For some reason I've been living under a rock and never heard about Better Comments. Awesome extension. Thanks for the tip! πΊ
Thanks for the write up! Polacode looks super sweet! :D
No problem! Glad you enjoyed. Yeah, Polacode is great when I need to whip up some documentation and I like to provide code examples right from the project itself! Makes it super easy to do.
Nice list, will check out some I haven't heard of!
Awesome list, thank you for it
You're welcome!
WakaTime do better things in analytics
Hey Pravin, I have a premium membership to WakaTime, it's a great plugin but I'm not sure what everyone's data policies are even with WakaTime's privacy and obfustication so I didn't recommend it here. It's definatly a worthy one to note!

Hey, I have installed the polacode-2019 but how can I use it

Hey Olalani,
