I was exactly waiting for this video, as I am very new to Vscode. Just started three months ago and haven't used much other than for running/compiling C/C++

So 10 seconds in, I can already appreciate how you took input from similar videos critics and incorporated the best of the requests (time stamps and downloads). I hope your video gets a million views down the year, you deserve it.

I was skeptical of yet another VSCode extension video, but a few of these were new to me! Thank you!

[k-c]

Thank you for this wonderful video. There were a few things I did not know, made my job easier and better.

Awesome! I particularly know some of the extensions but I admit that others are really interesting to try. thanks!

LiveShare is going to be a game changer.
So awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Some useful extensions I wasn't aware of. I'll add them to my dev environment. Thanks! Some of my favorites are Auto Import, JSON Viewer, Thunder Client (for API testing), Rainbow CSV, Settings Sync (Synchronize VSCode settings), and Bookmarks.

wow, pieces is a revelation ❤️ it's like Pocket for code

[cariyaputta]

Didn't know about Pieces, thanks!

It's good to see some actual unknown extensions. I am tired of seeing live-server and prettier in videos like these.

[rkcolors]

Very nice presentation 👍 Proud of you Raman….

[rabbitazteca]

Yo... liveshare is amazing! I wonder why I haven't used this one before.

[alanjrobertson]

Good use of chapters! I didn't understand what Code Runner did vs just running the code directly though?

[AlexanderTVEducation]

LiveShare doesn't work for me. After I click share, the share collaboration session tab pops up and it never ends .

[atharwadeodhar]

how do I get those arrows on the side of the line number that expand and shrink certain brackets.?

[iwzljhk]

Where can I find a friend Liam who can help me debug and fix code like that? xD
And thank you for these tips :)

[ibekwevictor]

Awesome, I have this problem with my terminal : it gives me wrong output when I run my code... Anyway to fix that

[minaghasemi-swer]

Hi
thank you very much for your great work here! you've done an amazing job😍
I just have a question. I can't run my codes by code runner. I permanently happen to receive error code=127 whenever i click run code on vscode, whereas I'm sure the python is installed on my mac, since it is shown on terminal.
Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

[demirbilekdeniz]

thanks for the video!
Any ideas on what to do when eslint and prettier has different opinions on what the code looks like? :)
