Visual Studio Code setup

Install VS Code and a small set of genuinely essential extensions -- the widely-used, free code editor, configured for a real day-to-day development workflow rather than the bare default install.

Esta guía se elaboró a partir de la documentación oficial de Visual Studio Code setup, enlazada arriba — verifica siempre ahí los nombres exactos de paquetes/versiones antes de ejecutar estos comandos en un servidor de producción, ya que las versiones de la distribución y del proyecto cambian con el tiempo.

  1. 1Install VS Code

    # Windows winget install --id Microsoft.VisualStudioCode -e
    # MacOS brew install --cask visual-studio-code
    # Ubuntu/Debian sudo snap install --classic code

  2. 2Install the `code` command-line launcher

    On Windows/MacOS this is offered as a checkbox during install ("Add to PATH"); on Linux the snap package already provides it. Lets you open a folder straight from a terminal.

  3. 3Install a few genuinely essential extensions

    EditorConfig respects per-project formatting rules, Prettier auto-formats on save, GitLens shows inline blame/history -- a lean, broadly useful starting set rather than dozens of extensions most projects never need.

    code --install-extension EditorConfig.EditorConfig
    code --install-extension esbenp.prettier-vscode
    code --install-extension eamodio.gitlens

  4. 4Sign in to sync settings across machines (optional)

    Settings Sync (built in, under the account icon in the bottom left) keeps your extensions, keybindings, and settings identical across every machine you use VS Code on.
