VS Code Recommended Extensions

A good set of extensions can make working with a programming language more productive and often you’d like to share this list with others. You can create a recommended list of extensions for your project in the extensions.json folder within the .vscode.

./.vscode/extensions.json

{
  "recommendations": [
    "plugin1", 
    "plugin2"
  ]
}
