It does a marvelous job in reading <strong>.desktop<\/strong> files. It highlights the files just like gedit. The extension could highlight [X-GNOME-Metatheme] and it\u2019s keys. The extension has a great support for theme index files as well.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone working directly with Desktop files should have this extension installed.<\/p>\n<p>Source code of extension is available on Github. <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/nico-castell\/desktop-file-support\/releases\">https:\/\/github.com\/nico-castell\/desktop-file-support\/releases<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Extension <\/strong>Two<strong> \u2013 Embedded Linux Kernel Dev<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"566\" height=\"148\" class=\"wp-image-10114\" src=\"http:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-295.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-295.png 566w, https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-295-300x78.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Our second extension does not have many reviews, but our decision to choose it as top second extension got something secret.<\/p>\n<p>The best thing about this extension is to read <strong>.config<\/strong> files, which is rare in many other extensions. Extension also shows a nice device tree automatically depending on how embedded devices are compatible with each other. In addition to above, extension supports C, Konfig, and defconfig.<\/p>\n<p>The extensions are available here to be downloaded: <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/microhobby\/linuxkerneldev\">https:\/\/github.com\/microhobby\/linuxkerneldev<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Extension Three \u2013 GlassIt Linux<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"465\" height=\"152\" class=\"wp-image-10115\" src=\"http:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-296.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-296.png 465w, https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-296-300x98.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 465px) 100vw, 465px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This extension delivers some nice flow for your work on Linux. Simply install it from the extension catalogue. It is the only windows transparency extension for VS Code. This is not the only reason I selected it. It mimics standard Linux window managers such as Gnome.<\/p>\n<p>With this extension, users can enjoy a better opacity in VS Code. If you are not using a particular window manager then the extension will help you to enjoy something you miss about that display manager.<\/p>\n<p>Extension source and release file are available to download from: <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/Fmstrat\/glassit-linux\">https:\/\/github.com\/Fmstrat\/glassit-linux<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Extension Four \u2013 Linux Dev Extension Pack<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"530\" height=\"124\" class=\"wp-image-10116\" src=\"http:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-297.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-297.png 530w, https:\/\/linuxways.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/word-image-297-300x70.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is not just a single extension.
