Issue #111 (Notifications Settings)06/05/24
Here are a couple of reminders about notifications in VS Code. Firstly, you can view recent notifications by clicking the little bell icon in the bottom-right corner of the VS Code window.
You'll see a little popup that provides more options. You can "Clear All Notifications", or click the "Configure Do Not Disturb..." button, which is the bell icon with a line through it.
When you click the bell icon with the line through it, you'll see options to enable/disable Do Not Disturb Mode and you can select which specific notifications you want to enable or disable. My setup has five options I can disable, but you might have others depending on your installed extensions.
Lastly, if you search for "notifications" in your settings, you'll see a few things you can customize.
This includes the ability to control notifications while in Zen Mode, so you can limit your Zen Mode notifications to error notifications only.
As you might know, I write three different tech newsletters, among other projects. I'm a one-man operation and it's getting harder to find viable advertising to keep things going.

VS Code Theme of the Week
|
Pac-Man Theme — Here's one for the 80s retro heads, a single dark theme patterned off the classic video game of the same name.
The syntax highlighting is pretty nice but you might not prefer the color choices for the UI elements. For example, hovering the mouse over the Activity Bar icons turns them white on a near-white background. Aside from that, it's a decent theme.
