Increase your productivity by 10 folds! The most underrated extensions that you're unaware of
I'm an indie developer based out of my home, lol, and love to create awesome applications. People call me picky for adding extra attention to detail and over-doing stuff, while sometimes I feel like Jerry-Rigging everything I make
Haha, never meant to be used
Not bad, but your no.5 & no.2 can be fixed with a simple pair of other extensions.
More famously known as formatters and Vim :^]
You should cover the Vim extension if you haven't tried it out before. It will change the way and the speed you work with

As a developer, you're probably using Visual Studio Code on a daily basis. But did you know that there are tons of extensions out there that can make your life a lot easier?
I have a lot of VS Code extensions. Some are indispensable, some are good to have, and some become irrelevant because I'm no longer learning the language I downloaded it for.
In this blog post, I'm going to list my top 5 extensions that I think are underrated and unknown to most developers.😍
Bonus: At the end, there is a bonus extension, so be sure to check it out.
Now, starting off with the 5th one,
This extension fixes all indentation issues with a single shortcut. What is better than seeing it for yourself? Here's a demo
But why need it when you have prettier? There's a reason. As far as I know, prettier does not format python code, but this extension supports many languages that prettier does not.
Ever wanted to present your code to someone or some platform, but it looks ugly? A great alternative to Carbon, it automatically detects the language, highlighting, etc. and presents a picture-perfect version of your code.
Don't use it to share your company's code though :)
Ever typed a string with " and wanted to convert it to a template literal with ` or to '? Why move your cursor back and forth? Just press a simple keyboard shortcut to toggle through these quotes.
I hope you get the idea. This is pretty useful for me personally, since I mistakenly write the " and then remember to use `
A simple package that provides smart whitespace padding and closing of bracket pairs: () [] {}. Even though prettier does it automatically, it also supports languages like python, go, etc. which prettier does not support.
A must-have to increase readability.
This is one of the most useful extensions on the list. The thing it does might sound very basic, but combined with VS Code's awesome features, it could save a lot of time.
It becomes awesome when dealing with multi-cursor text, where it could convert case for multiple instances to ones, saving a lot of time. It also converts text like foo bar to paths like foo/bar. A must-have for every programmer.
Get the joke?.
OK, let's start the pitching.
Have you ever wanted to burn your eyeballs within seconds!? Well now, you can! With ho... Oh wait. No one in their healthy minds would want that!
Thanks for reading! If you are looking to take your VS Code experience to the next level, be sure to check out some of these extensions. Also, I'm going to post about a really cool project soon, so stay tuned.
You know the drill. If you found this post helpful, please share it with your friends and followers. And if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to leave them below.
