Unleash the Power of VS Code

Talkat NDC Sydney 2020 · 2020-08-31..09-03· [developer-experience]

Explains concrete ways VS Code becomes a full IDE: shows Control+P and command-palette navigation, demonstrates keyboard macros and snippets, and uses tasks to scaffold a new blog post. Runs a Node web server inside a dev containers image (container uses Node 12 while the laptop has Node 14) and opens it through Codespaces with forwarded localhost ports; collaborative editing and a shared terminal work via Live Share. Notes Codespaces idle timeout at 30 minutes.
