My favourite shortcut is expand / shrink selection. Mac: ⇧ + ⌃ + ⌘ + ←/→ Windows: Shift + Alt + Place the cursor in the middle of a string and start expanding. It will firstly select the word and then will be gradually adding surroundings to the selection: firstly the whole string, then the quotes, then the brackets, then the object, then object's brackets and so on and so forth - feels like AI and can save a lot of time.

Always create code workspace for the project you're working on. If you're working on multiple projects that require different extensions or any other customizations this will help you out by a lot. Also you can add the extension(s) used as a workspace recommendations - which can be shared amongst the team.

One of my favorites: Shift + Alt + A -- Create a block comment (useful for languages that have specific block comment syntax that varies from inline comments). It can turn a highlighted selection into a block comment or create an empty block comment if nothing is selected.

The things I like the most in VS Code are the auto-save, formatting and the fact that you can customize almost every keybindings you want to make it simple to your uses. But one thing that I consider very important and you didn't mention is the code runner extension, that can run almost every type of code easily and fast, very useful for testing for example.

My favorite productivity tip aside from making my own custom keyboard short cuts is using multiple cursors. you hold down the Alt key and click somewhere, you’ll put down a new cursor. Each cursor will accept the same key commands at the same time-a handy way to enter boilerplate text on multiple lines at once, for example. Another way to add cursors is to hold Ctrl+Alt and press the up or down arrow keys. Doing so will insert cursors in the lines above or below the current one-useful for working in columns of text. Another slick move: You can insert a cursor at every instance of a selected piece of text by hitting Ctrl-Shift-L. You can also control the selection size of multiple cursors by pressing Shift-Alt and the left or right arrow. Cheers!

VS Code is probably my most favourite piece of software I've ever used. I thought I was a ninja with it but this video cranked up the heat. Awesome watch, I'm almost excited to go back to work after the weekend now.

One of the sweetest things about vscode is the fluidity, I am big fan of Atom editor and sometimes I prefer using it(it's an attachment thing). In vscode, you can easily import your settings by comparing settings.json files and changing values. eg. I use ctrl+⬆ instead of alt+⬆ to move lines of code up and down. So there, as requested @Fireship

When a file is selected, Ctrl + \ to open it in a new split window. You can change the focus between split window groups with Ctrl + 1/2, etc. Ctrl + Tab, or Alt + 1/2/3 etc. to navigate through currently opened files in the currently focused window. Ctrl + W to close the currently opened file in the currently focused window.

A couple efficient ways of returning from multiple cursors to one: 'esc' will remove all but one cursor and 'ctrl + u' will undo the last cursor action one at a time. Both are good muscle memories to develop as you begin using tricks like the 'ctrl + d' spam demonstrated in the video.

To rename symbol you can simply use the F2 button from the keyboard on the symbol you want to rename in the entire project F2 is used in the whole Windows ecosystem so that's a nice thing they kept it :) Awesome video, learn tons of things I'll add to my setup thanks for sharing !

3 things I've been using constantly and I can say it has saved me a lot of mouse click and seconds doing this. 1.

This meant I couldn't install extensions anymore and I finally bit the bullet and installed Code, which doesn't require admin for almost all extensions. I can say that if all you want is a text editor, Code will do everything Notepad++ will do, sometimes simpler as well, and give you access to more extensions.

One of my personal preferences is overriding the default ctrl+- and ctrl+= bindings which will change editor size to code folding and unfolding. You can do this by setting the shortcuts in preferences -> keyboard shortcuts. This is very handy in maintaining lengthy files

Highly recommend Bracket Pair Colorizer 2 and Indented Block Highlighting. Helps me a great deal when dealing with code nesting. Especially useful in Flutter. I also like Code Spell Checker, can handle camel case etc. Just prevents typos which can lead to headbanging bugs later if something is named slightly differently then you thought it was. Also supports a user dictionary and can fix it for you so you can add all your domain specific stuff and never mistype it again

Some useful extensions: Auto close Tag - Automatically add HTML close tag, even JSX. Might be annoying when declaring types with TS Bracket Pair Colorizer - for colorizing match brackets Peacock - Change the color of VS code workspace

I watched it many times along the year and I still learn new things ... Thx bro !

If you cannot find a closing div tag in vs code you can use the "balance outward" command in the command palette that will select all the content inside the opening and closing tag including tags. Note that your cursor and opening tag should be on the same line. You can create a seperate keyboard binding for this command for ease of use.

1. tip for renaming anything in all of our code there's an shortcut just press F2 key. and just type new name of your thing. 2. to delete a whole line without selecting just press SHIFT + DELETE 3. to delete a word in forward direction press Ctrl + Delete.This will delete the word after the cursor. 4. to delete words in backward direction then just press Ctrl + Backspace to delete it. 5. press F1 or fn + F1 to access command palllete enjoy.

My favorite feature I found out lately is Emmet Abbreviation. Type div.container#App and then press Tab will expand the expression to with the cursor goes in between the opening and closing tag. It work correctly with JSX too (className vs class).

A little detail I appreciate is using the phonetic alphabet when saying shortcuts -- eliminates obscurity from mic pop, speaker issues, just hearing wrong, etc. I worked AppleCare for a time and it was one of the most transformative thing I did for customers -- while collecting names or email addresses, they'd struggle to enunciate a letter because phone call quality, and then I'd confirm in phonetic alphabet, and they'd go "oh, oh yeah" and then start doing it for the rest of the call, which would then go much smoother. Underrated tech support tactic.

Other shortcuts I use everyday as a front-end developer: Shift + Alt + f12 to quickly search references to a selected type (if using Typescript), variable or function throughout the whole project. Ctrl + Shift + f to search selected text globally. Also learn when to search for whole words and/or with captions. Ctrl + Shift + t to reopen last closed files/tabs, just like in a browser. Ctrl + w to close the current file/tab. Alt + horizontal arrows to go back or forward to the last cursor positions.

What makes me feel most powerful in VSCode is 1. Search your file (using regex if you need a pattern) 2. Focus the file itself 3. Press Control + Shift + L to select all occurrences of your search with multi-cursor 4. Make edits This way you can bulk edit things in a file super quickly.

Selectively add changes to the Git staging, or revert them: If you want to add some particular changes made in a file to make a commit and keep the rest of the changes made in the same file for a later commit, - Click on the green spot between the changed line and the line number - Click on the '+' button to add the change to the staging, or the "undo" button to revert that change. This helps me keep my Git commits clean: each commit represents one unit of change.

I do this also and atomic commit everything - it’s great. I gave it a custom shortcut of ‘ctrl + S + T’ I.e. stage. You can then just place your cursor or highlight blocks of code and stage only that. I wouldn’t recommend ‘command + s + t’ because it affects the conventional save command in an unexpected way.

If you select something, that you want to select multiple times ( for example, you typed variable "x" when you meant "y" somewhere, you cannot simply rename the variable because then it would change everywhere and you would have duplicates etc) you can tap ctrl+D multiple times and each time it will add one occurrence to the selection.

I hit like 3 times! This video is so useful! :)

You should have hit it 1001 times

I've also found the "Find in selection" feature highly useful. If you highlight some code, press cmd+f to open the search menu, then you can press cmd+l to only search in the highlighted area. It is really convenient if you want to search for some css rules or html only in some parts of the file

Alt+Click and Ctrl+Shift+Up/Down are probably my favourite vscode shortcuts. So useful for efficiently semicolonising multiple lines at once

VSCode's remote SSH feature has saved my butt so hard in the past. There was a project I was working on that only ran on our server (because I designed it all wrong, I'll admit), which only had command line access. With VS Code, I had my full text editor and VCS manager on a GUI-less server. So much pain avoided.

With multiple carrets, you can press home/end to go to the start/end of all lines, very useful for writing around multiple different things with different lengths

The main issue I've had with VS Code is that the default shortcuts are different on different operating systems. For example alt+shift+f to format the document on Windows but ctrl+shift+i to format the document on Linux. These can be changed, it's just annoying if you use multiple operating systems. Also it's just too slow to open for use as a git editor (e.g. for interactive rebases). Other than that, I like it in general.

This video is lifechanging. I use VSCode but didn't know these tips (example, alt up and down to move lines, ctrl x to cut a line like dd in vim and then paste it somewhere else). As a test, I clocked how long it takes me to simply either stay on my keyboard and type 1-20 without even rushing it (I typed the characters one at a time with a short pause, I didn't just run my finger across the top row), and it took 9 seconds while being slow and deliberate. Then I tried it again but after each one I lifted my finger, reached for the mouse, clicked another part of the screen, clicked back to where I was writing, moved my hand back to the keyboard from the mouse (just touching my right hand anywhere on the keyboard, with my left hand already ready to type the next number) and going back and forth to the mouse like this for a count 1-20 took this long: 71 seconds. That means staying on the keyboard is literally 8x faster even while staying slow and deliberate. 8x speed improvement!! that section of the video along with the other tips is literally lifechanging as a developer and helps explain how come Fireship is a God tier developer (for example for another video built an application in ten different frameworks quickly, which involves debugging JavaScript ten diffferent times, for ten different frameworks each with their own quirks). I will study and practice the tips in this video carefully. If anyone else has such God tier productivity tips for VS Code feel free to reply to this comment (even once it is a couple of years old), as I expect to stay on VS Code for my IDE for a very long time! Thank you Fireship for sharing these amazing tips.

Love you guys .. this video made my life so much easier 💖

My fav vs code items. Code Auto formatters -> helps to write clean code. Bracket Pair Colorizer -> JS was never so easy Everything has a UI and a JSON file (settings, shortcuts, etc)

I wish they had one for snippets, I hate modifying all those lines in these arrays...

4:40 Use F2 instead of installing an extra extension. Even works for all the languages like React,JS and TS

You can even use it on regular variables too!

I've switched from Visual Studio to VS Code for most my .NET Core projects. VS Code is the most scalable editor Microsoft has ever built
