# VS Code Workspace Setup

Configure VS Code for optimal team productivity and consistency.

## Core Workflow

1. **Create workspace settings**: .vscode folder
2. **Configure editor**: Formatting, linting
3. **Add extensions**: Team recommendations
4. **Setup tasks**: Build, test, lint
5. **Configure debugging**: Launch configurations
6. **Create devcontainer**: Consistent environment

## Workspace Structure

```
.vscode/
├── settings.json        # Workspace settings
├── extensions.json      # Recommended extensions
├── tasks.json          # Build tasks
├── launch.json         # Debug configurations
└── snippets/           # Custom snippets
    └── typescript.json
```
