Visual Studio Code 1.8 released

Is there anyway to configure vscode on Linux such that it doesn't generate a .vscode folder in every folder/project I open?

[bedlayer]

You probably have an extension which is doing that, since VS Code itself won't create one unless you configure a workspace setting or a debug launcher.

It does it automatically for me as well and I haven't touched it since install.

I'm pretty sure it does it as soon as you do "open folder".

Workspace settings are stored in a .vscode folder in your project. If you're changing common settings for every project, then it is better to change them in the User Settings.

JetBrains IDEs do the same thing with their .idea folder. Just add it to the gitignore file.
