OH MY GOD, THE CREATE NEW FILE CHANGED MY LIFE. NO LONGER DO I NEED TO SUFFER THROUGH THE EXPLORER!!! Thanks James!

Customizing the Advanced New File is most useful ever I found for VS Code customizations. Thanks.

This was the first video in a long time that actually had unique settings. It seems like all the other channels regurgitate the same old extensions.

My eyes say thanks for this color theme. I tried a lot of different themes, they were ok, but this one is a miracle.

For me, as a non-natve english speaker, it is sometimes difficult to understand some tutorials, due to incomprehensible pronunciation or heavy dialect. Not so with you.I understand every word. Thanks for that! And your videos are very informative!

5:53 This extension is GREAT!!! Thank you very much, I wish I had seen your video sooner, as I was just coding a robot in a simulator which restricted the whole program to a file, so navigating the code was a big hassle, it ended up getting over 900 lines long.

[monarch]

13:04 as someone who has to keep taking red hat certifications, having a vim like experience is super helpful so i dont just forget the basics when i start studying for another one.
