This article is about what VSCode plug-ins can do to improve productivity. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

Preface

VS Code has now become a hot development tool, which is loved by the majority of developers for its lightweight, powerful, easy to configure and rich plug-ins. In this article, we will introduce five productivity-boosting VS Code plug-ins.

I have written two articles about VS Code

I finally chose VS code!

10 VS Code plug-in artifacts, 7 super practical!

It is loved by many students and reproduced by many media.

In recent months, I have been trying out different VS Code plug-ins. By comparison, I have screened out some VS Code plug-ins that improve development efficiency and recommend them to you. I hope to be loved by you!

Error Lens

Number of installations: 52645

Error Lens is a plug-in that highlights code checks (errors, warnings, syntax problems).

Students who often deal with code should be aware that most development tools identify code by underlining. However, this is not direct and friendly enough for code debugging.

Error Lens enhances the diagnostic capabilities of the language by making diagnostics more prominent, highlighting the entire line of diagnostics generated by the language, and printing diagnostic messages online at the location of lines of code.

It has the following characteristics

Highlight errors or warnings more clearly

Append diagnostics to the end of any line that contains diagnostic information, which means you don't have to switch to the problem view in context

The status bar shows the number of diagnostics that opened the file (can be configured)

You can configure settings to control how ErrorLens displays enhanced diagnostics

Suitable for any programming language

Duplicate action

Number of installations: 73975

Duplicate action is a VS Code plug-in that quickly copies and creates files and folders.

File copying and new creation are not as common as syntax checking in the development process, and it can also be said that this feature is rarely used in the development process, so few people will notice the tediousness it brings. Whenever we need to copy and create a new file, we need to go through the process of creating an empty file-> copy-> paste.

Through Duplicat action, you can copy files and folders with one click.

There are two ways to use it:

Select the file with the right mouse button and click "Duplicate file"

Click the F1 key and select "Duplicate file"

Git History

Number of installations: 2503915

Git History is a VS Code plug-in that can view git and file history.

Compared with the first two models, Git History is much more famous and more versatile and commonly used. It has the following features

Show and search the git log content in detail in the way of image and speech.

View a copy of the file

View and search for file history

Compare branches, commit

...

Jumpy

Number of installations: 194559

Jumpy is a VS Code plug-in similar to the Atom tool of the same name that provides fast cursor movement (jump).

Jumping between codes is a very common feature that greatly affects the efficiency of development. If there are fewer lines of code, we can move to the specified location by scrolling the mouse. However, for hundreds or thousands of lines of code, this is bound to make developers feel broken.

When Jumpy is activated, an identity (two letters) is created in the area around the cursor. Then, just enter a two-letter code to jump to that location.

Path Intellisense

Number of installations: 3002830

Path Intellisense is a VS Code plug-in that automatically completes the file name and file path.

File reading and writing is a function that is often encountered in the development process, whether it is functional testing with local offline files, or static files are involved in the development process.

In the past, it was necessary to manually find the specified file and then copy the path. Such a tedious process is tolerable for a small number of file processing, and if there is too much, it becomes a very inefficient thing.

Path Intellisense allows you to complete the file name as if you were completing the code, which greatly improves the efficiency of the development process.
