I agree with the other commenter somewhat, the article is hard to follow and I still don't really know what breadcrumbs do... But it is all ok because that theme is awesome at the end!!

Glad you liked the theme! 💯

This article is just a tip — you can read more about breadcrumbs here → code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_2... there isn't much more to it.

  • You just enable the breadcrumbs
  • Then you use them with the keyboard shortcuts I mentioned above
  • Three settings which are pretty self-explanatory

Thanks for the heads up, definitely using it! 🙌 Hope it plays well with Ruby though, I still have to figure out my Ruby + VSCode config...

I love this new feature coz I will be using less and less of the explorer sidebar.

I moved my sidebar to the right side of the screen, and I love it. Maybe something you would like?
