 Hey there, I wanted to share my vs setup with you. Sorry, this isn't in a doc or easy to digest I've got a short amount of time before I go out and leave tomorrow So I thought I would just quickly show you what I do so First of all, I'm showing you my command prompt. I use a thing called commander I don't use the built-in PowerShell UI just because I love to have tabs Although I've heard that Windows 10 is adding tabs soon I work with Repos in the ace peanut core github organization and I'll show you how I use vs on one of those which is called the extensions repo In this repo. We have a file called start vs This is something that we found was necessary because we are dogfooding early builds of dotnet core and we have to set some environment variables to teach vs how to actually launch Or how to use new versions of dotnet core That's something that would be nice to see improved in visual studio in the future But I think most people outside of Microsoft probably won't care too much about that because they use stable releases of dotnet core Which usually just work fine I'll show you first my window layout and then I'll go over some of the extensions that I typically use I'm also actually a pretty heavy vs code user So I like the consistency of having solution explorer on the left that aligns with how things work when you're in vs code I I Let's see. I always keep the test explorer hidden over here and only pop it out when I'm running tests Use task-grown explorer. I don't use it in this repo But I use it in some of the other ones that have like npm tasks that I need to run more often I also use an extension called build logging when I'm debugging things in the project system This produces bin logs, which are super useful. Let me actually show you some of the full list of extensions. I have Okay, so this is the thing I just mentioned the project system tools as I also mentioned they use vs code quite a bit So I like to launch that We use editor config in our team. It's nice to have some intelligence there As I'm looking at these I realize these are created by Mads Let's see I Occasionally do markdown editing in visual studio, but to be honest, I've mostly done that in vs code lately This is my favorite extension add new file I Really love how simple and easy this one is to use if you haven't used it You should give it a try basically you can just do I think it's shift f2 And it asks you the file name and based on the file name like dot CS or to h2ml or things like that It infers which item template you want to use it's a lot easier than needing to right click Go to add a file navigate in the UI to the right template I love that I can do most of that through the keyboard. I Use live share quite a bit when I want to share my environment with other people I occasionally do pull requests from the GitHub extension, but to be honest it's mostly done through command line these days and I think that's it. There's some other ones that are just installed by default that I don't use like the snapshot debugger Anyways, I hope that answers your questions. I hope you're able to use this somehow Feel free to ping me on Twitter if you have any questions about this. Thanks much
