I recently learned that VScode let鈥檚 you create different profiles that let you switch between different sets of settings, keyboard shortcuts, snippets, and most importantly, extensions.
This is really if, like me, you have various extensions for different types of projects and don鈥檛 need them all running all the time. For example, I have extensions for C#, react, angular, or markdown projects (apparently I had 86 extensions installed 馃槺).
The profile editor is actually pretty nice, letting you copy from an existing profiles for from some builtin templates.
Unfortunately it doesn鈥檛 let you easily copy only certain extensions so the easiest way I found to get a list of all my extensions by running code --list-extensions from the command line and then creating an extensions.json file in a workspace.
When you open that folder, VScode will see those as recommended extensions for that workspace and let you install them all with one click.
