How to export your VS Code extensions from terminal

How to export your VS Code extensions from terminal

Note: Unix-like systems only.

  1. Export your extensions to a shell file:
code --list-extensions | sed -e 's/^/code --install-extension /' > my_vscode_extensions.sh
  1. Verify your extensions installer file:
less my_vscode_extesions.sh

Install your extensions (optional)

Run your my_vscode_extensions.sh using Bash command:

bash my_vscode_extensions.sh
