VS Code is developed by Microsoft.īefore we started, I wanna thank Singh for helping me to write the blog. It has a large collection of extension which you can use for your requirement.

It comes with emmet pre-built which no other text editor does and it also allows us to tweak into its code so we can even modify it's environment variables according to our preferences. VS Code is an IDE(Integrated Development Environment), We can make it more powerful by using the extensions and it's very easy to customise. Github is like social media for programmer where you can upload your code/ project file and get star, fork, and can be part of the developer and work on the project with other programmers on Github. Your token is now available for VS Code and you’ll be able to use the built in Source Control features.If you are reading this, then you probably know what GitHub and VS Code(Visual Studio Code). Paste the complete token screen (blue highlighted area shown in the screenshot above) into the field. Next, scroll until you find vscode-github.login/account like below:Ĭlick the down arrow and edit the password. Once Credential Manager opens, you’ll see two tabs: Web Credentials and Windows Credentials. To get into Credential Manager, click the Search icon in your Windows taskbar and type in Credential Manager. So, now what? Well, VS Code creates a username and password inside of Credential Manager.

In my case, VS Code did not receive the password change. Which prompts a password field to appear in VS Code. The first thing I was prompted for was to authorize VS Code to have access to my GitHub account: After it was updated, I was prompted to log back into my GitHub account. Over the weekend, Visual Studio Code (VS Code) was updated on my machine.
