Visual Studio Code for macOS, simple trick

This is a simple command line trick for Visual Studio Code under macOS.

Open your VS code as usual, press ⇧⌘P and write "shell command". The command palette will show two options, install shell command or uninstall shell command.

Obviously choose the first one. Close the Visual Studio code.

Now with terminal go to your project folder, e.g. cd /Documents/myNodejsProject/

and write

code .

don't forget the dot at the end. The Editor will open you project with files and folders ready to code it. You can run the command for other project at the same time, will open a new VS code windows for the project itself.

You can do it with file -> open folder inside the VS code itself, but i think this simple trick is better.
