The Visual Studio Code, most of us love this code editor. Didn't we but "Love, like any flame, can grow dim with time if not tended to with care and effort."
Here is the following tips to make most of your code editor.

Themes

Themes are great to get tailor experience of code editor.

Here are some of my favorite themes.

2. One atom akamud.vscode-theme-onedark
3. Monokai monokai.theme-monokai-pro-vscode
4. Batman Mono IsaGoksu.batman-mono-theme
5. Abyss MatongoMulindi.abyss

Just try this ones or search @category:"themes" in your extension bar.

Fonts

Font style matters most in code editor. you can use any mono type font available in your system. I recommend using Google Fonts.

Some of my favorite fonts are -

• Space Mono
• Ubuntu Mono
• Roboto Mono

Icons

There are bunch of libraries, tools and frameworks we use while development. It will be great that we get there icons right in our IDE. Here's a look using icon themes in vscode.

Some of my favorite icon themes are -

• Atom Material Icons
• Material Icon theme

for more icon themes search tag:icon-theme in extension bar.

You can also change icons on the sidebar in vscode settings > themes > product icon themes

Extensions

• Tailwind Fold stivo.tailwind-fold - want to view your markup code and stuck with multiple lines of unwanted tailwind classes use this tool. It will hide the tailwind utility classes which gives you clear idea of your markup.

• Git Graph mhutchie.git-graph - Most of us developers uses version control systems like git. We can see commits with a GUI using git graph right in IDE.

Extra Tips

• if you're using git bash in windows machine you can install oh-my-bash for themes available for terminal.
• Horizontal scroll your code is always a pain. you can use word-wrap just hit alt+z.
