It’s the little things in life that make me happy and the new file icons available for Visual Studio Code make me very happy.
The new icons
For the August Visual Studio Code release there is now the option to show file and folder icons.
This may sound like just a small visual tweak but I’ve found it to be really useful in finding files I need faster.
How to enable
Enabling the icons is easy and the update comes with two icon sets.
To enable just go to File > Preferences > File Icon Theme and select one.
More icons!
If you feel the need for more icons, there are already more icon sets available in the marketplace
