Nice list! @nickytonline. Any other good UI-only themes?
@raybooysen where is yours?

@rickmed, those are the ones I currently like. I like the dark themes as I find it easier on the eyes. There's tonnes though, https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=themes&target=VSCode .

VS Code 1.9 is supposed to ship this, but for now if you want a code lens that shows references to methods (like in C#), you can get it today via TypeLens in the VS Code Marketplace or you can also grab the VS Code Insider's build, VS Code Insider's Builds

@rouzbeh84. I use Fira Code as well. I love it! Thanks for the theme suggestion. Maybe I'll take Panda for a spin ;)

My setup depends on machine and style of work. Here are my go-to plugins (main machine):

  • prettier
  • import cost
  • vscode-icons
  • EditorConfig
  • hipsum
  • eslint

I keep it lean and mean.

Current Theme: DesertEx (I swap frequently though)

versionLens for npm packages is pretty useful if not using david, greenkeeper etc
