Why use the extension?

VS Code extensions make the developer's work easier. You can add a new feature to your editor. It's important to use good extensions according to your needs. It will help your work productivity.

I will share mostly web development extensions but there are tons of others that you can check out from here.

Prettier

Prettier is the most known format extension. If you are working in a big team every person might have a different code style format but with prettier, when you save your code, it will stick to the format that you specified earlier and keep the consistency.

Live Server

This will run your code on the web browser and whenever you save your code, it will update the page without the need to refresh the page anymore.

vscode-icons

VS code icon-themes will be shown on your folder image and it will make your code structure more readable and understandable. The icons of the folder update themselves according to the folder name that you will provide.

Thunder Client

Every developer is aware of the postman. Postman is a very useful tool to test our API's, but it's a bit painful to open a new app and switch between app and code. Now we have an alternative to postman. Thunder Client is VS code extension that can test your API's. It's still not as good as postman, but it looks promising.

ESLint

ESLint extension makes your code consistent and it helps you avoid bugs. It sticks with the same pattern design for the whole team.

In conclusion, I only shared 5 good extensions. There are also other useful extensions out there that are not mentioned here. Don't forget to check them out.
