THE BEST AND MOST USEFUL VSCODE EXTENSIONS
โญ- WHAT WILL I SHOW?
In this Thread, I won't show you little extensions that you probably already know, like Live Server or Prettier.
I'll focus on USEFUL extensions that you probably don't have or know, but of course, I'll also go through some simple ones along the way.
โ 1 - BETTER COMMENTS
This extension will REVOLUTIONIZE the way you comment your code!
With it, you can change the color, style, leave the comment THE WAY YOU PREFER.
I myself always use it and WON'T STOP USING IT, it helps a lot to make the code beautiful!
โ 2 - ERROR LENS
You know when you're writing code and need to ALWAYS COMPILE it to then LOOK FOR THE ERROR?
THAT ENDS HERE! Error Lens shows you CLEARLY where the errors are WHILE YOU WRITE THE CODE!
And I'll warn you, it also shows TypeScript alerts hahaha, I highly recommend it!
โ 3 - TABNINE AI AUTOCOMPLETE
You may know others like it, but I assure you, I'VE BEEN USING THIS FOR YEARS AND NEVER REGRETTED IT
Even the free version helps you A LOT to write code! It has a VERY complete system, besides being VERY reliable!
I DON'T CODE WITHOUT IT ANYMORE! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
โ 4 - VSCODE ANIMATIONS
This extension WILL IMPROVE YOUR VSCODE EXPERIENCE BY 1000x
It adds simple animations to VARIOUS actions, like opening a new file, terminal, etc.
And believe me! It won't bother you AT ALL! IT'S REALLY WORTH IT!
โ 5 - BOOKMARKS
NO MORE GETTING LOST IN CODE!
With Bookmarks, you can add markers wherever you want!
These markers can have comments, be customized, and all of them appear in a TAB JUST FOR THEM!
It's REALLY WORTH IT for large codes, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
โ 6 - CODE SNAP
You probably already know this one, BUT WAIT, I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING YOU DON'T KNOW!
With this extension, you take THE BEST PHOTOS OF YOUR CODE, it's perfect for sharing anywhere! even on Instagram to brag about your clean code! hahaha
And one thing you might not know is that it's CUSTOMIZABLE
You can change the background, color, opacity, spacing, EVERYTHING!
It's really worth it! I ALWAYS recommend it!
โ 7 - VSCODE PETS
I showed this one in the previous post, BUT IT'S WORTH SHOWING AGAIN!
With this extension, YOU CAN PUT PETS IN YOUR VSCODE!
There are various options for animals, scenarios, you can play with them, EVERYTHING, IT'S AMAZING!
IT'S REALLY WORTH INSTALLING OH MY GOD IT'S REALLY WORTH IT
โ 8 - WAKA TIME
THIS IS INNOVATIVE, YOU'LL SEE!
With this extension YOU CONTROL ALL THE TIME YOU SPENT CODING IN THE WEEK
It sends you a report about EVERYTHING in the week, with the time you spent on each project, file, IT'S AMAZING
Just sign up and make the most of it!
โ 9 - GIT HISTORY
If you use Git / GitHub frequently, THIS EXTENSION WILL SAVE YOU A LOT
It shows ALL Git history, from commits, pull requests, EVERYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE
And this with the SIMPLEST AND MOST INTUITIVE design
Even though it's simpler, IT'S REALLY WORTH IT!
โ 10 - PEACOCK
If you're a person like me, who always has MANY VSCode tabs open and always gets lost in them, THIS EXTENSION IS THE SOLUTION
With it, you can put ANY COLOR ON THE GITHUB BORDER, making it UNMISTAKABLE
(AND IT STARTED THE POST)
โญ BONUS - REGEX PREVIEWER
This one's for you WHO DON'T KNOW AND DON'T WANT TO KNOW REGEX (JUST LIKE ME HAHAHA)
