Developing Environment

Basic installation

• Visual Studio Code, always the latest, with the following extensions
  • XML Language Support by Red Hat (redhat.vscode-xml)
  • Badges for Visual Studio Code (idleberg.badges)
  • GitLens — Git supercharged (eamodio.gitlens)
  • TextMate Languages (togusa09.tmlanguage)

Recommended extra installation

• Using Fira Code with Font Ligatures is not a must, but it has fancy arrows. Please see this link explaining how to install it in VSC, and for Linux SO

Settings

{
    "window.zoomLevel": 1,
    "editor.fontFamily": "Fira Code",    
    "editor.fontLigatures": true,
    "editor.tabSize": 2,
}

We'll use a 2 character tabsize using spaces, please set your configuration for all files because if not it will cause a lot of git differences.
