Artisan is one of the best feauture of Laravel Framework. It is where we generate our controllers and models as well. It can bởi vì more but overall it"s very cool feature, but VSCode brings us good news because instead of running on terminal, we can actually automatically run it in our IDE.

It outputs the same but the difference is that in VSCode it is more user friendly. Lượt thích the example above in the IDE you can actually search the routes using a tìm kiếm box provided by the extension.

There is still more artisan commands listed so if you want to try it you can install the extension.

Installation:

Last, but not the least, I recommend to lớn install the Laravel 5 snippets . Same as Laravel Blade Snippets it provides the list of Laravel 5 classes and automatically writes it down in your code.

Installation:

Extras

If you are creating classes most likely you need to địa chỉ the namespace so that you can access the class object, to vày that you need to lớn manually đầu vào use AcmeClassName và sometimes you need to lớn know where the class is located. This extension that I recommend solves this problem & it"s called PHP Namespace Resolver. It just automatically append the namespace of the class as shown below:

Installation:

Configuration

Awhile ago we intalled the Laravel Blade Snippet, what we need to bởi now is to lớn the some configuration enable foramattion for our blade. Open Prefences > Settings tìm kiếm the word Emmet and then look for Edit in settings.json

Look for this codes and enable them by change their value from false to lớn true:

"emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true, // enable tab lớn expanse emmet tags"blade.format.enable": true, // if you would lượt thích to enable blade formatConclusionVSCode is a lot of things & it can really make your development easy. Install this Extentions & you và it will improve your development speed.

If you want to lớn install more extension, I suggest first to check documentation and consider if it is necessary in your development.
