Some extensions that will be useful for any PHP developer.

Unneeded because vscode can do the same natively... After each names here below, the setting to enable in VSCode, somes are already enabled by default:

• Auto Close Tag
  • "html.autoClosingTags": true,
  • "javascript.autoClosingTags": true,
  • "typescript.autoClosingTags": true
• Auto Import
  • "javascript.suggest.autoImports": true,
  • "typescript.suggest.autoImports": true,
  • "javascript.updateImportsOnFileMove.enabled": "always",
  • "typescript.updateImportsOnFileMove.enabled": "always",
• Auto Rename Tag
  • "editor.renameOnType":true
• Settings Sync
  • See https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_48#_settings-sync

You can use vscode on the command line with the --list-extensions option to retrieve the list of all installed extensions.

Open a DOS Prompt Session and run code --list-extensions. You'll get a list like below:

aaron-bond.better-comments
alefragnani.Bookmarks
bajdzis.vscode-twig-pack
bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client
bobmagicii.autofoldyeah
calebporzio.better-phpunit
...

By running a Windows Powershell prompt, you can quickly generate a list of vscode instructions to install all these extensions. Start Windows Powershell and run the following command:

code --list-extensions | % { "code --install-extension $_" }

You'll get a list like below:

code --install-extension aaron-bond.better-comments
code --install-extension alefragnani.Bookmarks
code --install-extension bajdzis.vscode-twig-pack
code --install-extension bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client
code --install-extension bobmagicii.autofoldyeah
code --install-extension calebporzio.better-phpunit
...

Just copy/paste the full output and, f.i. send it by mail to someone. He'll just need to paste the list in a DOS Prompt Session to install them.
