vscode-altr
Altr allows you to navigate to alternate files for the currently opened file.
Why?
Suppose that you're developing a Ruby on Rails project; It's quite often that you sequentially edit a set of specific files such as app/models/user.rb, spec/models/user_spec.rb, app/serializers/user_serializer.rb, etc.
With this extension, you can cycle among these files with a single command, so you don't have to manually look for the other file.
Commands
altr.switchToNextFile - Open the next file which is inferred from the current file.altr.switchToPreviousFile - Open the previous file which is inferred from the current file.
