Recommended Extensions for VSCode Users

While we recognize and accommodate various IDE preferences within our team, such as WebStorm, we recommend Visual Studio Code for its speed, flexibility, and robust ecosystem. For those using VSCode, here is a list of recommended extensions that enhance productivity and streamline the development process:

  • lit-plugin: Provides useful error messages and syntax highlighting specifically for Lit components.
  • ESLint: Integrates ESLint into VSCode, making it easier to follow our coding standards directly within the IDE.
  • GitHub Copilot and GitHub Copilot Chat: Offers AI-powered code completion and conversation capabilities, helping to speed up coding by suggesting snippets and solutions.
  • Prettier: Automatically formats your code to match the project's style guidelines, ensuring consistency across the codebase.
  • Pretty Typescript Errors: Makes TypeScript errors more readable and easier to understand.
  • Thunder Client: A lightweight Rest API Client and GraphQL IDE built inside VSCode, useful for testing and documenting APIs.
  • TODO Highlighting: Helps in highlighting TODOs, FIXMEs, and any keywords within your code, making them stand out and easier to manage.

These extensions are selected to support our development practices and enhance your coding environment. Feel free to explore and integrate them into your workflow.
