VS Code is great editor - colon.
There’re ways to make it even better:

  • by using fonts better suited for coding - like Install Fira Code Font
  • and enabling ligatures 
    "editor.fontFamily": "Fira Code",
"editor.fontLigatures": true

    A detailed description can be found on the Fira Codde website shown above.

    • For smooth editing install Disable Ligatures plugin
      This translates the cool ligatures into editable characters.
    • More on ligatures

    A few more modifications i’ve to explain later

    • Cobalt2 Theme for VS Code
    • cascadia font (instead of Fira Code - c above)
