Presenter Pro for Visual Studio Code

This Visual Studio Code extension pack includes a set of extensions that can help presenters while showing code live in person or over recorded.

Install

Open Extensions sidebar panel in Visual Studio Code. View → Extensions
Search for Presenter Pro
Click Install
Click Reload, if required

As web tools evolve, the usefulness of extensions come and go. I reserve the right to update the extension pack's contents up to my own discretion.

Extensions Included

Here is the list of extensions the pack includes:

Dimmer

Get Dimmer here

Enable dimmer and set a subtle delay in the dimmer to reduce the API calls.

I keep the dimmer disabled until I need it, then turn it off again.

  "dimmer.context": 1,
  "dimmer.opacity": 50,
  "dimmer.delay": 100,
  "dimmer.enabled": false

Peacock

Get Peacock here

I change the accent color of the activity bar and status bar with Peacock. You can use any of the favorites, choose a random color, or enter your own custom color.

This is helpful for the audience when you show 2 different projects in a presentation, because they can more easily see the difference between them.

  "peacock.affectActivityBar": true,
  "peacock.affectStatusBar": true,
  "peacock.affectTitleBar": false,
  "peacock.keepForegroundColor": false,
  "peacock.keepBadgeColor": false,
  "peacock.darkForegroundColor": "#15202b",
  "peacock.lightForegroundColor": "#e7e7e7",

Power Mode

Get Power Mode here

I only enable power mode for fun, use sparingly. I do not recommend enabling "shake" during presentations.

  "powermode.enabled": false,
  "powermode.enableShake": false,
  "powermode.presets": "particles",

Winter is Coming Theme

Get Winter is Coming here

I prefer the dark blue theme, but the light theme can be helpful when the projector shows dark colors as washed out.

  "workbench.colorTheme": "Winter is Coming (Dark Blue)",
