Stressed? Take a break with some Extensions
Is anyone else constantly freaking out about coding challenges, projects, and eventually applying all of this knowledge in a professional environment? Yeah, me too. There is a lot to learn in a small window of time, and it can be a bit overwhelming. One of my classmates recently taught us how to change our mouse, which inspired me to look into other fun extensions that could be beneficial for academic purposes.
- Quokka.js: This extension allows you to test out your code from within Visual. It can save you the trouble of needing to go back to the console every time you want to verify small changes made to your code.
2. Octotree: I’ve been ringing this bell for a while now, but Octotree turns Github into an easier navigation process. It generates a code tree and dropdown file system that is easy to navigate and eerily similar to that you use in VS Code.
3. Debugger for Chrome: This extension allows you to debug code within VS Code. It essentially tries to replace console.log(); allowing you to check your console output, set breakpoints, and do many of the other things you typically do in your console.
Being resourceful can save a lot of time. If you are new to coding or are simply looking for the edge over others, I implore you to do some research. There are some really fun (and helpful) extensions out there that we haven’t even begun to learn about. Also check out Downworthy. It’s hysterical, and you’re welcome! :D
