Congrats on the first post!

As another person whos first language isn't English, I would like to recommend to you the use of Grammarly or something like that (free version is more than enough) to improve the writing quality.

I would second this.

Grammarly is certainly a very useful plugin for both Chrome and MS Office products.

I would add ctrl+.. This trigger the 💡 fixer. It's incredibly useful when you don't want to touch the mouse. Thanks for your contribution. You sure have to add something to the grammar, but the content is something we understand.

Thank you for writing this, very useful! One doubt: I feel like there's a tiny bit missing here:

Needs to be:

.then((res) => {}).catch((err) => {});

Congratulations on the first post! 👏🏼

While it is such a good idea, I think a guide to markdown will do better.

I am using VSC on Mac and I find this command useful:
Command (Ctrl) + P: open any file inside your root directory 🐼

You can get the cheatsheet with all VS Code keyboard shortcuts from the Help menu. I have printed it and pasted it on my table. It is very handy.

CTRL+SHIFT+F and CTRL+SHIFT+H will open the search (& replace) in all files. Even better if you have some text already selected (also works with regular search and replace).
