Thanks for the suggestions, I already have some installed, but I'll look into the others especially the last one, Code Time. I really need that just to keep track of my working habits. I also think Prettier is a very good extension to have as a developer, just makes everything look great.

i18n folks: The Inlang VS Code extension we are building has been a lifesaver for me in handling i18n complexities. It's effortless to translate, detect missing translations, and update content seamlessly within my VS Code. There is also a typesafe JS library and a CLI for machine translations.
