This extension pack will take time to be installed. Please be patient. You won't regret it!

Before Starting:

• First, after clicking "Install" (to install this extension pack), you'll see a popup. Just press Enter.
• I strongly recommend installing only this extension pack. If you have other extensions, they may interfere with the extensions of this pack.
• I also strongly recommend you to uninstall all extensions before updating this extension pack.
• In fact, sometimes, I delete some extensions of this extension pack but they are still there after updating because they're installed in your VSCode.
• Also, to make all things work, you have to open your project in Visual Studio Code by going to File at the top left of VS Code and Open Folder in Visual Studio Code and selecting your project.

Logins and Pre-requisites:

Windsurf login:

• Typically, Windsurf will ask you to sign in. Do it!

VSCode Default Format Application:

• You can now see which tags are matching with your code.
• Even in PHP (e.g. inside echo), it's possible to see which tags are matching with your code.

CSS Peaks:

• Please notice that the CSS Peaks extension only works with HTML files. If you use PUG files or other languages to convert into HTML, it won't work.
• You'll need to use the CSS Peaks extension in the HTML files. While pressing Ctrl and hovering a class in CSS, if written inside different CSS or SCSS/SASS files, clicking on it will automatically point to the class inside your CSS file.
• If the class is in different CSS files (e.g., a CSS file after compiling SCSS/SASS), clicking on it will display different file choices. Choose the one you want by clicking on it in the dropdown list, and click on its content to select it, and click on its name at the top left of the CSS peek.
• Note that the name at the top left does sometimes not change even if you have clicked on the correct file (for example, it remains style.css even if you clicked on style.scss). This is not a problem, the redirection will still happen.
• For example, if you have a class like .button in style.scss and style.css, by clicking on it, it will display a dropdown list with the two files (style.scss and style.css). You just have to click on the one you want, then click on its content to select it, and click on its name at the top left of the CSS peaks window.
• You can also modify the content of the class in the CSS peaks window, directly inside the interface on the left, but it is recommended to modify the code in the file itself since some features are not available in the CSS peaks window.

Windsurf AI:

• If you have Continue AI installed, uninstall it to enhance Windsurf to not interfere with it.
• Additionally, with certain languages, when you're inside a file with this specific language, Windsurf will be orange at the bottom right of your code.
• Click on it and it'll propose you to be used in this language at the bottom right of your code. Allow it to make it work for that one.

Auto-fill Code:

• After typing the beginning of your code, you'll see the next part of it automatically: that's the auto-fill!
• Don't worry, you must press Tab to validate it!

• Finally, if the explorer display doesn't show inside Visual Studio, click on View and View the Explorer or something like that to show it.

Code Runner:

• You can directly execute your code without having to compile it.
• Click on the play icon in the top right corner of VSCode, and it will display the result of the code execution in the terminal.
• If the language is not compatible: it will display an error it's becaise you canot run it like this.
• Maybe you need to have an entire project to be able to run your code like C# or you need to install the language inside your machine.
• For more informations, go to the README.
• Some languages are not compatible with this feature. You'll need to use Visual Studio or find a way to execute them by yourself.

C / C++ Code Runner (Run, Debug, Compile, etc.):

• First of all, you need to install GCC/G++.
• For instructions on how to do this, you can refer to this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oC69vlWofJQ for Windows, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wY24ehH6mC0 for Mac and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e7pa6Pf3VQ for Linux.
• Then, while clicking on the arrow to the right of the play icon, it will display more things. Choose whatever you want: running the code, compiling it, etc.
• If some open source projects make errors while compiling, it is recommended to folow the instructions at the bottom about Visual Studio and follow these steps:

1. Right click on the .sln file inside VSCode.
2. Choose Open in Visual Studio.
3. Click at the top left of Visual Studio Build -> Build Solution. This should resolve the issue.

C# Code Runner:

• To run a C# console app, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal in VSCode.
2. Run the command dotnet new console. This will create a new C# console app with a basic Hello World program.
3. Run dotnet run. This will compile and execute your C# code. The output will be displayed in the terminal.

• You might have to install the .NET Core SDK if you haven't already.

Leave WSL2:

• To leave WSL2, click on the remote icon at the bottom left of your VSCode.
• Then, you'll see a list at the top center of your screen.
• Click on Close Remote Connection.

Formatting for many languages (like HTML, XML, CSS, JS, TS, PHP, C, C++, C#, Java, etc.) (except Ruby and maybe others, sorry):

• To format properly, press Alt + Shift + F (or Option + Shift + F for Mac).
• If you want to have it while saving, click on the settings icon at the bottom right of your VS Code, then go to Settings, type format on save in the settings search bar, and enable Format on Save.
• Take notice that Python will format/indent correctly if you make a space before your line of code. If not, it will not work.
• If it's not formatting, press Alt + Shift + F (or Option + Shift + F for Mac) and normally, you'll see a popup about the format.

There will be two possibilities:

Configure format:

• If it's the Configure button, click on it and choose the one that appears on the list at the top of the screen. Congratulations, it will work for you.

Install format:

• If it's Install format instead, it could be because I haven't implemented it for your specific language, and I'm sorry.
• Uninstall the extension and install it again (which can be a glitch) or click on Install format and try to have the format yourself.

Columns while saving in Javascript and TypeScript:

• To add semicolons while saving, go to the settings icon at the bottom right of your VS Code, then go to Settings. Type format semicolons in the settings search bar, and click on ignore below JavaScript > Format: Semicolons, then change it to insert.
• Do the same for TypeScript > Format: Semicolons.

Live Previews for Webpages:

When you're on your HTML page, you'll have two options:

Go Live:

• Click on Go Live at the bottom right of your page, and it will open your HTML on a webpage.
• After saving your code, it will automatically reload your page with the modifications!

Go Live Loop:

• You'll see a new icon at the top right of the page (the window with a loop).
• Just click on it, and you'll have a new page opened.
• This is the preview of the page.
• It will automatically reload the page after any modifications, even if you didn't save (SAVE ANYWAY!).
• You can also access to the console at the top right of the preview and Open DevTools Pane.

When you're on your PHP page:

• First of all, for it to work, you must not open your website in any pages of your browser.
• With your server, you must set the same default web browser as VSCode's.
• Then, install the Web Live Server extension to your browser.
• Click on it, and type http://localhost/ if you're using a local server (or the IP or the path of your local server) or the address of your server where your website or folders and files are (e.g., http(s)://(ServerIP)/) in Actual Server Address and http://127.0.0.1:5500/ in Live Server Address.http://127.0.0.1:5500/ is the default IP address of Live Server.
• If you modified it in the parameters of Live Server, use the new one that you implemented. Don't mess it up!
• Turn on Live Reload. After that, to have a PHP Live Server, inside VSCode, click on Go Live at the bottom right of your page.
• A page will appear.
• Then, open the PHP file to your web browser using your local server (e.g., WAMP, XAMPP or MAMP for Mac) or using your server or by copying and pasting the path to go to your page (ex: localhost).
• Finally, you will see your page!
• If you edit your PHP file and save in VSCode, it will auto reload in your web browser. GGS!
• If at any time the auto reload doesn't work, refresh the page manually in your browser once, and normally, it will auto-reload again.

SASS and SCSS:

SASS and SCSS Usage:

• If you want to create a CSS file, you can use SASS or SCSS.
• To use it, create a file with the extension .scss or .sass.
• In your code, you must call the .css format because it won't understand other formats other than CSS (e.g., create a style.scss or style.sass and call it in your code/HTML style.css).
• After this, when you're on your .scss or .sass file and click on Watch SASS at the bottom right of your code, it will automatically compile it into CSS (a .css and .css.map file with the exact name of your original CSS file will be created).
• Then, just write your SCSS or SASS, and it will appear as CSS in your .css file.
• But then, if you decide to click on Watching..., it won't update your CSS file automatically again.
• You'll have to click on Watch SASS again.

SCSS/SASS Prefixes:

• Also, if you want to have CSS Prefixes for your SCSS or SASS, go to the Settings icon at the bottom left of your VSCode and go to Settings. Type in the search bar autoprefix and click on Edit in settings.json.
• Then, inside the [] of liveSassCompile.settings.autoprefix, paste "> 0%","last 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000 versions","Firefox ESR" (do not worry about the values LMAO) and save.
• After this, while compiling your SCSS or SASS, it will automatically add the prefixes to your CSS to make compatible with older browsers.

Multi SCSS/SASS Files:

• If you name every .scss or .sass files with a _ at the beginning, and import them in the main style.scss or style.sass file, it will automatically compile them into a single .css file.

PUG:

• You can now use PUG instead of HTML or PHP.
• In fact, you can now use it without typing any code to compile it !
• Once you're in a folder containing .pug files or directly in a .pug file, you'll have two buttons at the bottom right of your code: Start Pug HTML Compiler and Start Pug PHP Compiler.

PUG to HTML:

• If you want to code with PUG instead of HTML, you can click on Start Pug HTML Compiler at the bottom right of your vscode.
• It will compile your .pug file to a .html one. While saving your .pug file, the .html one will also save with the PUG code that you just written.
• But then, if you decide to click on Stop Pug HTML Compiler it won't update your HTML file again.
• You'll have to click on Start Pug HTML Compiler again.

PUG to PHP:

• If you want to code with PUG instead of PHP, you can click on Start Pug PHP Compiler at the bottom right of your vscode.
• It will compile your .pug file to a .php one. While saving your .pug file, the .php one will also save with the PUG code that you just written.
• But then, if you decide to click on Stop Pug PHP Compiler it won't update your PHP file again.
• You'll have to click on Start Pug PHP Compiler again.

PUG to HTML or PHP Live Previews:

• When you use the HTML or PHP Compiler, the .pug file will be understood as .html or .php in your web browser (in function of which format compiler you choose).
• So, if you click on Go Live at the bottom right of your code with the .pug file, it will open the .html or .php one in your web browser.
• Follow the instructions of the HTML or PHP Live Previews.
• But, if you want to use the windows with a loop for HTML, you must first go to the .html file, click on the loop at the top left of the screen and then go back to your .pug file.
• It'll update the preview while saving.
• To have more details about it, please refer to te HTML / PHP Live Previews section.

W3C Validator for Webpages:

• At the bottom right of your VSCode, you'll find a button labeled W3C Validator. Select all your web code and click on it.
• A new panel will appear, and it will validate your code according to the W3C rules.
• It will explain you if you did mistakes about the W3C rules.
• It can only validate HTML files !

Database connections inside VSCODE:

• You can now use VSCode to view and interact with your databases!
• In fact, you won't need to use any other software (almost) to view or interact with your SQL or NoSQL databases anymore.
• If you're using a local server like WAMP, XAMPP, or MAMP (for Mac), you'll need to start the local server in order to access your databases.

Databases Settings:

• Normally, you'll see in the sidebar of VSCode at the left of your VSCode an icon labeled Database (for SQL databases) or NoSQL (for NoSQL databases).
• Clicking on one of them will open a new panel where you can add, modify, or delete database connections.
• To modify the extension settings, you'll need to click on the gear icon (⚙️) at the top right of the database or NoSQL panel and then click on Settings.
• Now, you can modify the extension settings to have a lot of additional options, such as displaying users for example.

• Simply delete a connection if you want to have another one.
• Once you click on your connection, all of your databases with the type you entered will appear.
• You can do the same things as before in vscode: checking databases, tables, columns, entering commands, etc.
• If you want more details about its usage, check some tutorials about it.

NoSQL Databases:

• Normally, you'll see in the sidebar at the left of your VSCode a stack of squares icon labeled NoSQL.

Share Server:

If you use only HTML files:

• First, you need to setup Live Server for your HTML and click on Go Live at the bottom right of your VSCode, then do the rest of the setup to make your live server works with Live Server with HTML (look at the HTML part of Live Previews for Webpages).
• You'll have to share all the HTML URLs to everyone for them to preview them.
• Once you shared, go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the arrow icon called Live Share.
• Then, click on the Share server... button at the top right of your Live Share window.
• Finally, at the top center of your VSCode, type your server port (Windows / Linux: port 80, Mac: port 8888 or 8889).

If you use a server:

• First, you need to setup Live Server for your server / PHP and click on Go Live at the bottom right of your VSCode, then do the rest of the setup to make your live server works with Live Server with PHP / a server (look at the PHP part of Live Previews for Webpages).
• Once you shared, go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the arrow icon called Live Share.
• Then, click on the Share server... button at the top right of your Live Share window.
• Finally, at the top center of your VSCode, type your server port (WAMP / XAMPP: port 80, MAMP: port 8888 or 8889).

Stop Share:

• To stop sharing, go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the share icon again.
• Then click on the stop collaboration session icon at the top right of your Live Share window.

Join:

Join Share:

• <!>WARNING: If the hoster is hosting a local server, do not have any other local server opened in your device running on the same ports as WAMP, XAMPP, and MAMP (ports 80 for WAMP/XAMPP, 8888, and 8889 for MAMP) or else all things using these ports will stop working.
• If you have other local servers with different ports, do not run them.
• If you have already opened a local server using the same ports and joined the hoster's server (read the 'Join Server' part), it is important to close that local server first.
• Then, close the local server in the background and in the panel controller, and close VSCode.
• Only then can you try to start VSCode and join the shaer and the hoster's server again.
• The person who has to join needs to install the Live Share by Microsoftextension in VSCode.
• If you have this extension pack, you already have it installed.
• Then, paste the invitation link that the hoster sent you.
• The link will be oppened inside online VSCode.
• A pop-up will appear to propose you to open it inside your VSCode.
• Accept it and wait for the connection to establish.
• Click on the allow Live Share to open the URL on your screen.
• The first time, you'll see a sign-in prompt at the top center of your screen. Choose an option to sign in.
• Finally, Restricted Mode will be on by default.
• To turn it off, click on Manage in the Restricted Mode pop-up at the top of your VSCode.
• Then, click on Trust at the center of the page and it will be turned off.
• You can leave the Restricted Mode page and start coding with the others.

Join Server:

If you use / the hoster is using only HTML files:

• Go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the arrow icon called Live Share.
• Then, if the hoster shared a server, click on the Shared Servers at the top right of your Live Share window and select the server.
• It'll redirect you to the server.
• After that, the hoster must give you all the urls of the HTML files to have them to preview.
• Notice that you won't have the automatic reload of the page. You'll have to do it manually.

If you use / the hoster is using a server:

• Go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the arrow icon called Live Share.
• Then, if the hoster shared a server, click on the Shared Servers at the top right of your Live Share window and select the server.
• It'll redirect you to the server.
• Then, do the rest of the setup like if it was your server (read the PHP part of Live Previews for Webpages except you don't need to Go Live).
• Notice that you won't have the automatic reload of the page. You'll have to do it manually.

Database Sharing:

• If the server/database that is shared by the hoster is on a local server, you just need to be connected with 'localhost' and with the port of your format (SQL = 3306, etc.) to acces to the database.
• The joiner will not be able to use the Database Client in VSCode. It will make an error. The joiner will need to use the old method.
• This is why it is recommended to work with a remote server. If you do so, the hoster will not need to share the server due to the remote address and the port (assumed), and both will be able to use the Database Client in VSCode.

Pictures Sharing:

• Sometimes, joiners can send images but they'll not be deletable.
• In that case, send them to the hoster.
• Then, it'll have to place them into the project.

Leave:

• To leave the shared session, go to the sidebar at the left of your VSCode and click on the share icon again.
• Then click on the stop collaboration session icon at the top right of your Live Share window.

Tailwind CSS Intelisense:

Backend Frameworks:

Laravel:

Laravel Snippets:

• You can now use snippets in Laravel. Look at the Laravel Snippets extension for all the documentation about all of them.

Live Previews for Webpages:

• First of all, for it to work, you must not open your Laravel project in any web browser page.
• With your server, you must set the same default web browser as VSCode's.
• Then, install the Web Live Server extension to your browser.
• Click on it, and type http://127.0.0.1:8000/ if you're using Laravel locally (or the IP or the path of your local server) or the address of your server where your website or folders and files are (e.g., http(s)://(ServerIP)/) in Actual Server Address and http://127.0.0.1:5500/ in Live Server Address. http://127.0.0.1:5500/ is the default IP address of Live Server.
• If you modified it in the parameters of Live Server, use the new one that you implemented. Don't mess it up!
• Turn on Live Reload. After that, to have a Laravel Live Server, inside VSCode, click on Go Live at the bottom right of your page.
• A page will appear.
• Then, open your Laravel project in your web browser.
• Finally, you will see your page!
• If you edit your Laravel file and save in VSCode, it will auto reload in your web browser. Great!
• If at any time the auto reload doesn't work, refresh the page manually in your browser once, and normally, it will auto-reload again.

Git Lens Inspector / Source Control:

• You can use GitLens Inspector by clicking on the GitLens icon (three points with two lines with a circle) at the right of your sidebar.
• Also, you can use Source Control by clicking on the Source Control (three points branches without a circle) icon at the right of your sidebar.
• I strongly recommend you to learn how to use Git with only commands.

Docker:

• Docker is a tool to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers.
• Containers are a way to package an application with all its dependencies.
• You can see all your Docker containers, images, registries, volumes, networks, and more by clicking on the Docker icon at the right of your sidebar.
