Did you feed your VS Code pets?
Who doesn’t love a good VS Code extension? I occasionally look around the web to find some new or fun extension that can improve my day-to-day life. This new find brings a smile and joy, sometimes just watching these pets roam around.
VS Code Pets
Enter your new favorite extension. VS Code Pets, by trypyjion.com. This fun extension lets you create a multitude of pets right within your window. My group of pets is a Clippy (blast from the past), a fiery red dog, and my cool rocket duck speeding around.
Adding a new pet
The selection of pets you can add is really impressive. You can add new pets from the extension view, + icon, or the command bar by typing Spawn additional pet
. Almost all pets can have different colors for their appearance. They even do little tricks and have different animations when moving. You can either name the pet yourself or use a default name that’s given.
