Is there a "missing" feature or extension that you would like to see in VS Code?

The most important thing that I need is the ability to cache script tag src'es to provide intellisense in the custom JavaScript(Internal or External). Like, if I use GSAP, then, I use the
gsapobject, I get a lot of errors(in VSCode only). What I have to do is use//@ts-ignoreto ignore the errors, or disable the error checking, of which the latter is not a good solution, atleast for me.This feature has been requested 3 years ago and has never made the cut for implementation, see the issue for more info. It's something I would of thought would have been given a higher priority! :-(
You could include a package.json with the library you are using (if there is an equivalent npm package), it should work AFAIK.
Grammarly
There is an unofficial Grammarly extension, but you need a paid account to use it. Grammarly doesn't have a public API, so I guess a hack is used to get around this..
Yes :) genius idea. If you're coding a webpage like a blog post and need to write it, Grammarly for VS Code would be epic.
Markdown Preview Enhanced can do more than I have wanted, including reveal-md.
What I currently need is personalized make-html for my blog.
Java / Kotlin support in VSCode is currently not good enough as well. I also don't like R support. Haven't test Python much.
The rest are getting rid of some nagging bugs, including ESLint, Vue / TypeScript support and fine-tuned autoReveal.
What I really want is an interactive Outline viewer. When I used Eclipse IDE for my Java projects, I could drag methods around in the Outline and it would refactor the code once I released my mouse.
VSCode does not support this feature, nor does it allow extensions. There is an open issue and it has been added to the backlog, and I am eagerly awaiting it's arrival.
I wish we could get WebStorm like parameter hints in the function call itself so hovering over the function isn't required. That's a feature that I like a lot from IntelliJ
Detachable windows.
It would be cool to have a TODO management extension where you can manage your TODOs where you can check and uncheck your coding goals.
Include the kanboard possibility of visualcode.com :-)
When doing Live share I would like to see a second pointer moving on the screen and not only the position in the code of the other person clicking.
make it more easy/convinient to compare file diff's, even if they are not in the same project.
