Python Top 10 Visual Studio Extensions

Visual Studio Code is one of the best IDE for development purposes when it comes to AWS CDK projects and AWS Cloud formation.

For Python development VS Code will suggest a general plugin for that, but of course, there are other plugins apart from that one that can help to ease your work. This article lists some Visual Studio Code extensions which can be helpful in the fast and easy development of Python.

1. Python

The Python extension will automatically install the Pylance and Jupyter extensions to give you the best experience when working with Python files and Jupyter notebooks. However, Pylance is an optional dependency, meaning the Python extension will remain fully functional if it fails to be installed.

2. Visual Studio Intellicode

The Visual Studio IntelliCode extension provides AI-assisted development features for Python, TypeScript/JavaScript and Java developers in Visual Studio Code, with insights based on understanding your code context combined with machine learning.

I have been using this for my typescript development, with python support certainly it saves lot of time if you are new to python scripting.
