Using settings.json

Advanced Extension Settings:

• Project-wide settings are configured using the standard settings.json file (i.e. Workspace Settings).
• settings.json must exist in the .vscode directory at the root level of your project.

  "compile-hero": {
    "disable-compile-files-on-did-save-code": false,
    "notification-toggle": false,
    "javascript-output-directory": "./out",
    "javascript-output-toggle": false,
    "sass-output-directory": "./out",
    "sass-output-toggle": true,
    "ignore": ["src/test.js", "*/test.scss", "**/spec/*", "**/src/**/*"],
    "watch": ["sass/test.sass", "**/less/**/*"]
  }
}

Using tsconfig.json

If you want to add or overwrite certain settings in the tsconfig.json file, you can create a new tsconfig.json in the same directory of your .ts file.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "alwaysStrict": true,
    "importHelpers": false
  }
}

Right click the html file in the directory menu, and the open in browser option will appear. You can preview the page in the browser.

Compile File Menu Item

Sometimes you may not need to automatically compile the file every time you save the file, at this time you can disable the automatic compilation. And use the Compile File(s) menu item to replace.

Close Port Command(MAC)

At some point, you may be using ports for some services. You can use the Close Port command to close, but now only supported on mac.
