Project Manager to easily switch between projects. One of the most useful extensions. Link →

Terminal

To make your terminal as pretty as mine, you need to use a tool called oh-my-zsh. I followed this tutorial → to set it up.

Settings

If you want your editor to work and look exactly the same way as mine does in the course videos, you can copy these settings to your own settings file (settings.json).
