How I Use VSCode

#vscode #ruby #rails #discuss

I’m about to overhaul my settings and plugins in VSCode so this is my “before” shot.

I recently updated and shared my Visual Studio Code settings on How I VSCode.

Check them out and share yours as well!

Really loving this tool because now I can always point people towards tools I like without having to copy it from a gist somewhere or be on my computer.

What plugins are you really enjoying? Any new ones? Which ones do you no longer need as the software matures?

Happy (VS) Coding!

I just simply use VS CODE but yea it's cool.
The extensions I use

Auto-Close Tag (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
VS Code Integrated Terminal (code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/...)
Bracket Pair Colorizer (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
ESLint/TSLint (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Code Spell Checker (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Prettier (github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode)
Material Icon Theme (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Path Intellisense (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Javascript (ES6) Code Snippets (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Live Share (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Beautify (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
Color Picker (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)
ES7, React, Redux & GraphQL Snippets (marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...)

These extensions are just essential with the other fundamental Ones.
Although extension only allows you to work to next level.
