+# 0802 - Visual Studio Code Tips and Tricks
+
+Visual Studio Code is one of the most popular code editors in the world, and has been receiving regular updates monthly since its original release in 2015.
+
+Wikipedia has a nice article about the history of [Visual Studio Code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Studio_Code).
+
+## Current Version and Acquision
+
+[Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com) is available in [source code](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode) form and in binary distributions for Windows, Mac, and Linux.  You can also run it in the browser, with instances available on GitHub CodeSpaces.  
+
+Try opening a page of code from GitHub when signed in by just pressing the 'dot' key on your keyboard `.`  You can also change the GitHub URL by replacing `github.com` with `github.dev` and open the current page in Visual Studio Code in the browser.
+
+## Code Writing Tips
+
+- `Ctrl+.` to pop open the code suggestion panel with code-fixes and suggestions
+- `Ctrl+<SPACE>` to open the intellisense panel with code-completion suggestions
+- `<TAB>` to choose a code-completion option and accept it
+- `<UP>` and `<DOWN>` when the code-completion window is open to select other options
+- `<UP>` and `<DOWN>` when the method signature completion window is open to select optional override signatures
+- Hold the `Ctrl` key to make these pop-ups semi-transparent 
+
+- `Ctrl+X` to cut highlighted text to the clipboard
+- `Ctrl+C` to copy highlighted text to the clipboard
+- `Ctrl+V` to paste the contents of the clipboard
+- `Ctrl+E C` or `Ctrl+K C` to comment the current line of code
+- `Ctrl+E U` or `Ctrl+K U` to uncomment the current line of code
+
+- `Alt+<UP>` to move the current line of code up
+- `Alt+<DOWN>` to move the current line of code down
+
+When writing HTML or other markup syntax
+
+- `Shift+Alt+W` to wrap the current markup with a div element
+
+When you have JSON or XML on the clipboard, try **Edit - Paste Special - Paste as Classes**
+
+Try the **C# Interactive** window to get a REPL experience where you can experiment writing code
+
+## Code Navigation Tips
+
+- `Ctrl+F` to find text in the current file
+- `Ctrl+H` to find and replace text in the current file
+- `Ctrl+Shift+F` to find text in the current solution / project with options including regular expressions
+- `Ctrl+Shift+H` to find and replace text in the current solution / project with options including regular expressions
+- `Ctrl+P` - Open the File navigator and locate a file by name
+- `Ctrl+Alt+P` - Open the Command Pallete to execute a command for Visual Studio Code
+- `Ctrl+T` - Search your code - filenames, classes, interfaces, methods, properties, events, enums
+- `Ctrl+G` - Goto line number
+- `F12` - Goto definition of the object under cursor
+- `Shift+F12` - Find all references of the object under cursor
+- `Ctrl+F12` - Find all implementations of the interface under cursor, if not an interface, goes to definition
+- `Previous Mouse Button` to navigate to the previous code ___location
+- `Next Mouse Button` to navigate to the next code ___location
+- `Ctrl+M M` to collapse / expand the current block of code
+
+## Debugger Tips
+
+- `F5` to start your application and begin debugging
+- `Ctrl+F5` to start your application WITHOUT debugging
+- `F10` to start your application, begin debugging, and stop on the first line of your code
+
+### While debugging
+
+- `F11` step into the next line of your code
+- `F10` step OVER the current code and don't execute it
+- `F9` toggle a breakpoint on the current line of code (can also be set when not debugging)
+- `Ctrl+Shift+F9` delete all breakpoints
+- `Shift+F11` execute and step out of the current method
+- `Strl+Alt+P` attach to currently running process
+
+Tricks to make debugging easier:
+
+- Right-click on a breakpoint and add a condition to force the breakpoint to only stop when a condition is met
+- Use Locals, Watch, and Immediate windows to get insight into the current variables in scope and execute arbitrary code while working in debug mode
+- Configure your own data for the locals and watch windows by adding the [`DebuggerDisplay` attribute](https://learn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/debugger/using-the-debuggerdisplay-attribute)
+- Use the Call Stack window to navigate back and forth across the calling methods
+
+More advanced debugging capabilities available:
+
+- Debug on a remote machine with the [remote debugger](https://learn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/debugger/remote-debugging).  This requires installing some tools on the target machine
+- Debug inside a Docker container
+- Debug inside Windows Subsystem for Linux
+
+## Make Visual Studio yours
+
+- Get your favorite themes from the [marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?target=VSCode&category=Themes&sortBy=Installs)
+- Use sites like [VSCode Themes](https://vscodethemes.com/) to preview popular themes
+- Configure and use snippets to use code patterns again and again quickly.  Select **Insert Snippet** from the command pallete to review the avaialble snippets and use **Configure User Snippets** to create a collection of snippets for yourself
+
