Notepad/enter/Coding Tips (Classical)/Terminal Tips/2. CLI Tools/Languages/Python/tools/IDEs/VSCode.md

This is not meant to be an educational how-to guide on VSCode because there are plenty of resources found within the docs itself on that. Instead, these are just a jumble of tips and tricks that I find useful to collect while I develop so that I don't have to constantly keep searching back again while I code.

- Of course, start VSCode through your terminal by `code .` which will instantiate a new VSCode instance directly from that folder. 
- To [completely remove](https://medium.com/@ojas.surpatne/how-to-completely-uninstall-vscode-on-mac-in-macos-df1b7a963e4e) VSCode run: 



```
sudo rm -rf /Applications/Visual\ Studio\ Code.app
```

```
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Code/
```

```
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.VSCode/
```

This will remove content in these primary location directories. Look into deleting [these directories](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42603103/how-to-completely-uninstall-vs-code-on-mac) as well for a clean uninstall.
