VSCode is a really great Code Editor rather say nearly an IDE or better than that. But this costs a great amount of RAM and CPU in bigger projects....

With regard to disabling extensions, it is not necessary to do this most of the time. Extensions are conditionally loaded based on their
Activation Events.For example, if you open a Python project, you would not expect a JavaScript-related extension such as Vetur to be loaded. An author could choose to load the extension always of course, but you hope they don't! You can read this article for a more in-depth discussion on this - VS Code Performance – How to Optimize Visual Studio Code and Choose the "Best" Extensions.
You can check which extensions have been loaded in the extensions sidebar. If an extension was loaded, you will see a loading time next to its name. You can see in the screenshot below that the extensions, ESLint and Format Code Action, have been loaded for my project. By clicking on the extension, you also see this in the "Runtime Status" tab also.
You can check an extension's Activation Events in the "Feature Contributions" tab.
If you do find yourself, repeating customization like KR mentioned across projects, you can create a custom set-up for a language or project type - see Customise VS Code for a project, or per language .
Great info Rob , thanks!
Wow, that's a whole lot information
I really appreciate your hard work, Thanks. Keep on writing these cool stuff!!🔥🔥
Thanks KR. 😀
My take away is "Turn off the lights if you don't use it."
Thanks
Pretty simple & clean stuff which I've done while ago. I want sure it was worth sharing. Cheers
Nice config, I'll give it a try. Thanks!
Nice article!
Quick mention there is a typo in the word "automatic" in the last heading, "Turn off autmatic typeAcquisition for Typescript only projects."
Thanks for letting me know😅 I'll fix it ASAP
What about spliting its terminal to run local servers and other stuffs?
... or just use visual studio code online github.com/features/codespaces
Or try gitpod.io/
Github codespaces is still on beta & not everyone's allowed to use it. Gitpod's much accessible & offers 50 hours of development time with maximum 4 parallel workspace for open source projects for Free
...or you can take a look at github1s.com/
This is very helpful general and specific information. But have we come to a point where VSCode is getting as resource hungry or as convoluted as pre .net core standard visual studio?
good tp lmlw
Adjusted my settings, thank you!
