If you’re on the hunt for new music for coding, we’ve got
you covered.
We recently launched the beta version of Music Time,

our VS Code extension that lets you control your music
right from VS Code and provides recommendations
based on the music you listen to while coding.
Rewind, play, pause, and skip songs from the status bar.
Browse your playlists and discover new music
recommendations right in VS Code without context
switching to the Spotify app.
You can check it out in the VS Code marketplace.
If you're looking for music to listen to right now, we've

compiled some of the best and most popular Spotify
playlists to get you started.
