Practical Extensions for Visual Studio

Visual Studio has very good scalability, and in previous articles I showed you how to extend the editor (see Resources at the end of this article). In this article, I'll introduce a few very useful extensions to help us improve our development efficiency.

C # outline

The Visual Studio default outline scheme only allows you to collapse the code at the method level and above, and you cannot collapse an if, while block, and this tool compensates for this problem.

Highlight all occurrences of selected word

The extension can highlight all the relevant code in yellow and mark it with a conspicuous square in the left area so that we can identify the location of the relevant code at a glance.

Indent Guides

The code is too long to be dazzled at times, confusing which bracket is a pair, and the tool draws a dashed line for each indent.
