In this episode, Robert is joined by Mads Kristensen, who shows us the Web Extension Pack. This extension installs a number of extensions that help you become a more productive Web developer. The extensions contained in the Web Extension Pack have been proven to be stable over time and useful for all Web developers.
Spectre.Console is a .NET Standard 2.0 library that makes it easier

To help you enjoy this creativity from the community, every month or two I’ll be introducing some of the new extensions that caught my eye. Here are the highlights for this month:
