Favorite VS Code extensions

On this post i am going to list my favorite extensions for Visual Studio Code

These extensions below help me to be more productive on my role as a DevOps Engineer

• GitLens — Git supercharged

  The most helpful feature of GitLens is that it visualizes code authorship via Git blame annotations.

• Vim

  Vim emulation for Visual Studio Code. Some of my favorite settings that complements vim emulation

  Enable them by adding the following in settings.json

  "vim.smartRelativeLine": true, "vim.useSystemClipboard": true

  This allows the extension to use the system clipboard and also it renders the relative line numbers so i can easily browse a file inside vscode

• ShellCheck

  Integrates ShellCheck into Visual Studio Code. You need to have shellcheck installed on your system

• Bash IDE

  A language server for Bash.

  It exposed IDE-like features for bash/shell scripts into vscode. Symbols are added so jump to declaration and references are supported

• YAML by Red Hat

  YAML Language Support by Red Hat, with built-in Kubernetes syntax support

• HashiCorp Terraform

  The HashiCorp Terraform Visual Studio Code extension adds syntax highlighting and other editing features for Terraform files using the Terraform Language Server.

• Bracket Pair Colorizer

  This functionality used to be included by Bracket Pair Colorizer extension but recently became native to VS Code.

  Enable it by adding the setting

  "editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": true
