I will not use vim or emacs
Show this thread
I've hid the activity bar in VSCode and have been using keyboard shortcuts. Would highly recommend it. The editor feels a lot more balanced and there's way less empty space.

+1, especially if you're screenshotting / casting "workbench.activityBar.visible": false, or CMD/CTRL + SHIFT+ P and search "activity bar"pic.twitter.com/TnjVU1LkqM

TIL, excited about my extra 100px of IDE real estate

You like shortcut? Use emacs
-
I started with vim so now that's what I prefer...but regardless of which you choose, you'll wonder why you didn't start using emacs/vim sooner...

I'd recommend hide the tabbar and minimap as well

+1 on minimap. It’s the first thing I turn off. I don’t know why it’s useful, you can’t read code off of it anyway, and it reduces working space by so much.

I have been doing this for a while too. I find that hiding the UI pretty much forces you to learn the keyboard shortcuts

This is going to be painful for about 2 days... but will appreciate this tweet later.
