Visual Studio Code

Eye comfort is very important, especially to programmers, who spend most of their day looking at code in their favorite editor.

I’ve already mentioned a few themes I like, and today I am going to teach you how to set your editor up in such away that the theme changes automatically depending on what time of day it is.

Take a look at the three screenshots above:

My settings for Visual Studio Code. Please feel free to use any and all settings you might find useful :)
