Spacemacs! Never tried doom emacs but i did love spacemacs. When i made my way back to (n)vim I had to hook up spacevim. Now I'm back in vscode, (the performance has gotten a lot better) and there is a VSPaceCode 😎

Gonna go google doom emacs real quick tho

Wow! I might have to give VS another go, then! I remember VSCode being the primary TextEditor for classes but i've started leaning between vim and emacs. But doom emacs is cool; you can do anything in emacs, from sending emails, chatting on irc, browsing the web, usiing terminal for your local computer and a special eshell for managing emacs files. Its such a powerful app, and doom emacs puts Emacs in evil mode, so you have vim key bindings if you have a vim background (which helped me out, a lot :) )

I used Project Manager for a couple of years, but recently switched to Project Dashboard. I like the grouping and it can load on start, so I can quickly pick a new project if I need to switch.

Also, Save All link is opening Toggle Quotes and VSC supports native save all via key shortcut Ctrl + K , S. I think this is the link to the Save All extension if you want the icon to show in the editor. It's cool - I may try it out.

Unfortunately to have tome views, you need some clickbait title, I am sorry, if you were deceived by clickbait title.
