- Enforce consistent code style and formatting from day one.
- Improve HTML/CSS editing with tag auto‑completion and highlighting.
- Access utilities for import management, error insights, and file previews.

1. Install [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/).
2. Open the **Extensions** view (`Ctrl+Shift+X` on Windows/Linux or `⌘+Shift+X` on macOS).
3. Search for **Angular Starter Extension Pack** or install directly from the [Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=imgildev.vscode-angular-starter-pack).

## Recommended Browser Extension

For developers who work with `.vsix` files for offline installations or distribution, the complementary [**One-Click VSIX**](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/imojppdbcecfpeafjagncfplelddhigc?utm_source=item-share-cb) extension is recommended, available for both Chrome and Firefox.

> **One-Click VSIX** integrates a direct "Download Extension" button into each VSCode Marketplace page, ensuring the file is saved with the `.vsix` extension, even if the server provides a `.zip` archive. This simplifies the process of installing or sharing extensions offline by eliminating the need for manual file renaming.
