Thanks for the article mate. Just wanted to share other extensions:
[Edit : added VSCode live share which always blows my mind when I use it but that I forgot]
Thanks for mentioning! :-)
Great list, I use most of the extensions. I've developed another extension (for refactoring & linting): marketplace.visualstudio.com/items... - would be curious to hear what you think :)
Thanks. Will use your extension and reply, since I was working on refactoring a project :)
Alright, I refactored that random project. Your extension really made it much easier to refactor it. Thanks!
Thanks, glad it was useful!

As another reply notes, Bracket Pair Colorizer is now a built in feature of VSCode starting with version 1.60 and is faster (which was the motivation for it be added as an internal feature).
To enable it, you need to either go to "Text Editor" and then check the "Editor>Bracket Pair Colorization" box to enable it or edit your settings.json and set "editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled" to "true".
Thanks for mentioning! :)
Thanks for the list.
Live Server (last updated April 2019) is an awesome extension! However for simple live refreshing HTML/CSS/JS (not for react, angular etc), we've been using Microsoft's "Live Preview" - still in "Preview" status - but has been super stable here.
marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...
I'm so used to live server lmao. Thanks for mentioning!

Great list, and I'll add one. I found that Live Server isn't as reliable as Five Server. marketplace.visualstudio.com/items...
