Number one is Live Server. This is the easiest way to test out any application you make on your web browser, literally a click of a button. Number two is Prettier, which is pretty self-explanatory. It just helps with formatting your code so you don't have a bunch of curly braces and spaces just littered everywhere in your script. Number three is JSON Crack because pretty much everything nowadays has an API and being able to visualize that JSON is an absolute godsend. Number four is Indent-Rainbow, which makes all your code indentation way more readable, exponentially helpful after 1,000 lines of code. Number five is Live Share and it's pretty much like Google Docs but for your IDE and it is goaded for group projects. If you have any questions on how to set these up or how to use these, hit a follow and comment code and I'll send over a couple YouTube tutorials.
