I’ve been using VSCode for almost 2 years now and I like it so much. I’m sure that you like it too. Extensions are a core part of VSCode that adds extra functionality to the editor. I’ve installed about +40 extensions and here is my top 10 list.

10. Bracket Pair Colorizer

This extension allows matching brackets to be identified with colors. The user can define which characters to match, and which colors to use.

9. File Utils

Creating and managing files using built-in methods can be overwhelming. This extension provides a convenient way of creating, duplicating, moving, renaming, deleting files, and directories.

8. Better Comments

The Better Comments extension will help you create more human-friendly comments in your code.

With this extension, you will be able to categorize your annotations into:

• Alerts
• Queries
• TODOs
• Highlights
• Commented out code can also be styled to make it clear the code shouldn’t be there
• Any other comment styles you’d like can be specified in the settings

7. WakaTime

Did you ever want to check how much time you spend on a project? Or how much time did you spend coding in a specific language? Or coding in general? Well, WakaTime has got your back! It shows Metrics, insights, and time tracking automatically generated from your programming activity.

WakaTime also has a chrome extension that tracks how much you spend browsing the web.
