    If anyone runs into the issue of "you don't have an extension for debugging json with comments" or similar, make sure you open the correct folder in VS code. It has to be the one created from running the "yo code"-script

      What if it's a repo I forked??

    • @createdxvibez1183
      @createdxvibez1183 Рік тому

      I ran into that issue, from what I've gathered it just means you don't have your debugger of choice, chosen. you have to select the bug icon and choose "show all automatic debug configurations" select which debugger you want to use and it should work.

      @moustafael-shaboury2659 Рік тому +1

      Actually I fixed it - turns out you literally need to have nothing open apart from the folder itself when you press f5 (so don't open any .json files)

      I was on Intellij's IDEs since I started programming (The community editions are always free).
      Now I wanted to get into C++ but the C++ IDE from Intellij costs 400$ a year (Java and Python are free) so I did everything to make VSCode feel like Intellij.
      Changed the font, changed the icons, and spent a day making exactly the theme from Intellij for C++. It really is a PITA but now it looks like the IDE i know.

    Amazing video! Everything ran smoothly until the install 'yo generator-code part'. I literally spent the whole morning trying to figure out what was wrong. And finally after using powershell and cmd and failing I used git bash and like a miracle it worked! All the errors disappeared and now my theme is out there in the marketplace. Thank you for the awesome tutorial!

    Good stuff. I had one dark theme from an extension but I wasn't satisfied with the colors and I couldn't find any dark theme I fully like, so I started changing this one I downloaded, I changed pretty much everything!! And added some extra colors tokens from other themes and even some colors I created myself. I spent a shitload of hours testing so many colors but it was worth it. I'm super happy with my theme now. 😁😁😁
