VSCode has already become the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for developing any javascript-based application. I don’t think anyone uses any other IDE for the same. Having a good developer experience revolves around making the experience nice as well as putting less effort in writing code.
So here I am going to share my small list of extensions that have helped me over the years to have a nice experience while coding using keystrokes.
1. Typing less
These extensions help to write less code using snippets. We all have used Three Letter Acronyms (TLA) in our phone “omw -> On my way!“. The below extensions let you do the same with code. You have to try each one of them to experience the improvement in your coding speed.
The plugins helps you code with “intellisense” and renaming.
2. Improving Quality
The extensions mentioned in this section let you improve the quality of code by enabling rules/checks which are identified during a CICD pipeline. Left-shift in coding is the right thing for you as a “coder” and your company.

4. Look & Feel
In my opinion, Look and Feel plays a vital role in codingl. If as a developer, you feel good while writing code – you would enjoy coding more. These small extensions help you in that area. Experience is personal so please take reference from here and find things that suit you.
