Practical VS Code recipes: use the Insiders build or roll back a release from GitHub when an update breaks workflows; open the command palette (F1) and Ctrl+P to jump to files or symbols; create edits with multiple cursors and use problems view for TypeScript errors. Configure workspace settings (sync via OneDrive/Dropbox), set files.autosave afterDelay, hide generated .js next to .ts, use the integrated terminal and extensions (Angular snippets, HTML/CSS helpers), and rely on built‑in Git, diff and Markdown preview. Cordova/emulator debugging can work but failed here due to an environment/ADB issue.
