VS Editor Plus: A Visual Studio 2022 Productivity Extension

VS Editor Plus is a Visual Studio 2022 extension created to put a few repetitive editing actions closer to the code window. The goal is to reduce small workflow interruptions while keeping the developer in control of the changes.

The extension includes inline comment/uncomment controls for visible lines in C# and JavaScript files, along with commands that can identify and remove methods containing errors or no statements. A separate helper is documented for copying a missing table from another database after the user confirms the operation.

What it is useful for

  • Quick comments: toggle comments on visible C# and JavaScript lines without manually typing comment markers.
  • Source cleanup: review actions for methods that contain errors or are empty. These actions can remove code, so use them only after making a backup or committing your work.
  • Database maintenance: review the source and destination carefully before confirming a table-copy operation. Test with non-production data first.

These are focused convenience features, not an automatic guarantee that a project is correct. Always review the source diff, rebuild, and run the tests relevant to your change. For database operations, verify which objects and data will be copied before using the helper in a real environment.
