codeSTACKr Code Tip of the Day
Do you ever need to go back up to some code you wrote earlier to copy a piece of it, then have to figure out where you were at just before that?

Just press Alt+LeftArrow, you’ll go right back to that previous cursor location.

You’re welcome!

Code Tip of the Day
When you work with large chunks of code, it’s easy to get lost.
With sticky scrolling enabled, the top of the editor will show you your current scope.
And you can click on the top layer to go back to the top of that section.
It works in many file types like HTML, JavaScript/TypeScript, CSS, md, package.json, and many more.

[#Script #Coding] Best VS Code Extension for REST API – No More Postman

Best VS Code Extension for REST API – No More Postman

By codeSTACKr
Published: Dec 23, 2022

“
codeSTACKr Thunder Client is a lightweight Rest API for VS Code.

It’s a great alternative to Postman or Insomnia since you can run your queries directly from VS Code instead of yet another application.

After you install the extension, you’ll see a new tab on the sidebar.

From there, you can create a new request. Enter the URL along with any the type of request it is and any payloads. Then run it.

You’ll see the results right here inside VS Code!

VS Code Tip of the Day
How do you rename functions, variables, classes, and other symbols in visual studio code?
Do you go one by one renaming them? I hope not.
Do you use the find and replace menu to replace them all? That’s better.
Maybe you use Ctrl+D or Ctrl+Shift+L to select all occurrences of that word. That could work, but it’s still not the easiest way.
All you have to do is put your cursor on the symbol that you want to rename and press F2, then rename it. That’s it. It will automatically be renamed everywhere that it’s referenced.
You’re welcome!

Code Tip of the Day:
Font ligatures are special characters that combine multiple characters into a single symbol.

They can help your overall coding experience and make your code more readable and elegant, especially when it comes to symbol like not equal, greater than or equal, and less than or equal.

But they are definitely up to user preference. Some people love them, and some hate them. Personally, I like them.

In Visual Studio Code, you can easily enable font ligatures by editing the settings.json file, and adding `”editor.fontLigatures”: true`.

You will also need to use a font that supports ligatures because not all do.

Some popular fonts like Fira Code, Cascadia Code, and Hasklig which extends Source Code Pro are great coding fonts that have support for ligatures.

And my custom STACKr Code font which is included with my VS Code Hero course has ligature support as well.

Have you ever tried to change a word everywhere in VS Code that has multiple case variations?

Some are lowercase, some use camel case, and some are all uppercase. It’s a nightmare!

The VS Code extension Multiple cursor case preserve makes it easy!

Let’s say I want to change all of these variables from customer to client.

After you’ve installed the extension, put your cursor on the word you want to change and press Ctrl+Shift+L to select all occurrences of the word.

And just rename it! It will preserve the case of each selection.

You’re welcome!
