In addition to this list, for those doing node monorepos in 2022, the extensions that I think you must use are:

  - Github copilot - like autocomplete on steroids.
  - peacock - change the workspace color - helps reduce mental load when working on different projects.
  - tag autorename - this should be built into vscode, saves a bunch of keystrokes
  - snippets - this is a category of extension. Find whichever snippet lib is out there for your stack.

Tag Auto Rename is built in, enable it with: "editor.linkedEditing": true https://www.roboleary.net/vscode/2020/08/05/dont-need-extens...

I was looking for this exact thing the other day. Thanks for the tip!

Although that plugin seems trivial, for me, when working with multiple code repos, it really does help to organize thoughts quickly. I get multiple interruptions daily and being able to quickly bounce between repos, using visual cues, helps alleviate context interruptions.
