The Extensions are freely available in Visual Studio Code Extensions Marketplace. Few of these have been added to the Marketplace in 2020. Download these extensions and enjoy Coding !!!
1. Multiple Copy Paste
This one is one of the Super Cool Extensions that is added to the Visual Studio Code. The extension enables the user to have multiple copy-paste capabilities. The Application will allow the user to simultaneously copy 10 values and retain them in the memory and paste those 10 values on the editor. So it extends the features of “Ctrl + c” and “Ctrl + v” to the next level so that 10 more values can be copy-pasted.
In order to copy, select the test to be copied using “Ctrl + 0”, “ctrl + 1” …. “Ctrl + 9”. Similarly, the value copied on “Ctrl + 1” can be pasted back to the editor using “Alt + 1” and so on.
- * For Mac: Use “Control” in place of “Ctrl” and “Option” in place of “Alt”
So try out this extension, and thank me later :-)
2. Auto-Close Tag
I would also make this extension as “Must Have Extension”, It makes developers crazy once he finds out that the error is due to missing closing tags. Also, this is one of the most common mistakes that we often do while developing. Following are some of the cool features of this extension
- Adds closing tags on the addition of the opening brackets.
- The Cursor is placed between opening and closing bracket
3. Auto Rename Tag
Once we have those automatic closing tags inserted, we would like to ensure that the opening and closing tabs are always in sync. If any of the starting tags is renamed, the corresponding closing tags are renamed. This will always keep the closing and opening tags in Sync and ensure that the tags are never inconsistent across the application.
Install it and forget about the inconsistent Opening and Closing Tags.
4. Prettier — Code Formatter
This is another MUST HAVE EXTENSION, this extension is a code formatter and ensures consistent styles by parsing our code. The extension works great with JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, JSX, and Angular.
Extension contains multiple configurations that can be configured as per the requirement of an individual to see how the code is formatted on their end.
5. Bracket Pair Colorizer
This extension can be used to colorize the pair of opening and closing brackets. The corresponding brackets can be highlighted to mark the starting and closing of the code block. This extension allows matching brackets to be identified with colors. The user can define which tokens to match, and which colors to use.
