Must have VS Code Extensions for every Angular Js developer who moved from Visual Studio

This list of must have VS Code extensions are my personal favourites for working in both Angular 1 and Angular 2 projects. While I switched from Visual Studio to VS Code sometime back ( way before plugins were introduced in VS Code) , I felt,  brackets editor as a better choice than VS Code. Once plugins are enabled / available for VS Code, it became my favourite editor and I never missed my Visual Studio which was my favourite IDE for more than a decade .
