VSCode/Cursor Setup

The extensions, theme, and settings I use.

Note: I may earn a commission from some links (thank you for supporting me).

Cursor

- I just started using Cursor, which is a fork of VSCode (all extensions still work) with Claude built-in. So far I'm finding it a lot more useful than Copilot.

Theme

"Catppuccin for VSCode" theme

- Simple and clean.

Material Product Icons

- I like them better than the default ones.

Extensions

Auto Rename Tag

Better Comments

Dotenv

- This extension keeps your env files synced across machines.

Postman

- Test APIs without leaving the editor.

Draw.io

- Great for creating diagrams within VSCode.

Figma

- View any figma file within VSCode. You can even copy the code if you have a pro subscription.

GitLens

- Makes it easy to see who made changes throughout a file. I still like having it for solo projects.

Project Manager

- Quickly jump between projects.
