First post to get the community going. Here's the list of extensions that I personally use. Most are disabled globally and enabled per project. Feel free to ask questions, give me suggestions, etc.!

Edit: Thanks for the good idea on formatting @NostraDavid. I also converted my list to urls

code --list-extensions | ForEach-Object {" - [$_](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=$_)"}

I made this list by:

  • running code --list-extensions in Powershell
  • put the output in a vscode tab
  • put OP's output in a second tab
  • select OP's tab first, under OPEN EDITORS in the sidebar
  • while holding shift, select the other tab
  • RMB the second tab -> Compare Selected
  • remove all duplicates in the right (my) tab
  • now to order everything, manually
  • put the mouse cursor on line 1, hold MMB and drag down to insert a bunch of extra cursors
  • press Home and insert [
  • press End and insert ](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=)
  • move the cursor back and select the extension names/IDs
  • press ctrl-c
  • move cursors to the end of the URL
  • ctrl-v

I just wrote this, because most people seem to use vscode as if it's notepad.exe with tabs, which makes me sad.
