Visual Studio Code Preferences

README.md

My Visual Studio Code Preferences

The various settings I use in VS Code. Useful, not only for new setups, but also sharing with others.

These preferences are organized in the order you might configure VS Code from scratch.

1. Keyboard Shortcuts (keybindings.json)
2. Settings (settings.json)
3. Extensions
4. Workspace config (projects.code-workspace)

extensions.md

VS Code Extensions

This is my list of installed VS Code extensions (with commands to install them).

You can pull your own list at any time with the following command. I use the same command to update my gist.

code --list-extensions | xargs -L 1 echo code --install-extension

To install the full list, just highlight this entire code block below, copy, paste at your command line, hit enter.
