  1. Live Server

Live Server is another popular choice that helps you launch a local development server with a live reload feature for static and dynamic pages. You can easily manage and track your code changes because every time the code changes are saved, the changes are instantly reflected in the browser. This allows you to spot errors or issues and easily experiment with your code.

2. Remote — SSH

Remote — SSH extension allows you to create your development environment using the dual combination of any remote machine with an SSH server. This helps you to simplify the development or troubleshooting processes in different scenarios. The source code is not required for your local machine as this extension directly executes commands and other required dependencies on the remote machine.

3. CSS Peek

This extension has been helpful to front-end developers in improvising the way development requirements are handled. You can manage to pull requests in your IDE and perform code reviews with complete source-tree context.

It is all about spending less time formatting your code so that you can focus entirely on delivering your coding requirements. This is what this extension helps to achieve. The formatting issues are automatically fixed in your code, such as double quotes or semicolons issues encountered repeatedly.

Peacock is one of the best VS code extensions that allows you to change the color of the Visual Studio code environment or workspace. This is helpful when you are working with multiple VS code instances and want to identify the instance you are currently working with.
