Dope VS Code extensions for a Javascript developer

According to Octoverse 2017, Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code tops the list of Projects with the most contributors. Which implies that there are a lot many developers who absofreakinlutely love VS Code. Here I have a list of extensions which might not make you a better developer, but for sure would make you feel like one!

A few more, particularly for ng fans :

• Angular v5 snippets
• Angular2 inline
• Angular2 material

Other worthy mentions which either couldn’t make it to the top 12s or were too obvious : gitlink, esLint, chrome-debug, yarn, Bracket pair Colorizer.
