Getting Started With Visual Studio Code. Must Done Basics Setting!

Hello Guys!

Now you are using vs code or going to use it. I just want to give you some important tips which help you to be productive.
These tips are also essential for beginners.

So Let's get started.

  1. Command Palette : (Ctrl + Shift + P), This is a search bar where you can find anything you want. You just need to type in and here you get it.

  2. Setting : (ctrl + ,) VS Code have a setting option where you can setup your environment.
    Like :- Font size, Warp Mode, Auto save and much more! Just scroll down and customize as you want.

  3. Shortcut :- For being productive you need to use your keyboard more than your mouse. So, learn keyboard shortcuts.
    Like :- (ctrl + b) = for opening/closing side bar.

  4. Theme : (ctrl + k + ctrl + t), There you can set your own theme. VS Code have multiple theme you can choose whatever you want.
    You can also install an Extension for it, some of them are Cobalt2(my fav) and winter is coming.

Last but not least,

  1. Setting Sync : That's a great thing here, you can save your all Setting and Extensions all future! If you change your PC for a reason you don't have to setup it again. You can find this in setting option and download a Extensions for it.

Thank You!
