VS Code Setup
There are a few settings that you will want to adjust for yourself to make your VS Code experience more enjoyable. There are many times where students will want to have their setup look just like the videos that they watch.
VS Code Themes - Students will often ask how to get their VS Code to look like the videos. The answer is that you need to install a theme. Now you can choose any theme that you like. Keep in mind that there are themes that do not work well when trying to find errors in your code. I recommend that you use a theme that has a dark background and light text. This will make it easier to find errors in your code.
In the marketplace there are many themes that you can use in VS Code. I will show you a few of my favorites. You can find more themes by going to the VS Code Marketplace. Most of them are free.
