My favorite VSCode extensions

While vanilla VSCode already gives programmers a nice experience, it can make quite a difference when you have the right extentions.

Since the extension ecosystem is open, there are a lot of "junk" extensions, that do not really benefit a lot of users or dont work at all.

I'm sharing here the list of my favorite extensions I would install on my machine anytime.

GitLens by GitKraken

VSCode has support for GIT, but GitLens completes it in a very pleasant way.

Pretty TypeScript Errors

When working with TypeScript, this makes a difference. Some errors in TypeScript can be pretty hard to read and understand, especially, when generics are involved.

This extension will add readable and nicely formatted explanations that help to drill down to the actual problem.
