You need to do this via an extension as of the version 1 8 1   Go to View   Extensions  This will open Extensions Panel   Type bookmark to list all related extensions   Install    I personally like  quot Numbered Bookmarks quot  - it is pretty simple and powerful  Go to the line you need to create a bookmark  Click Ctrl   Shift    some number  Ex  Ctrl   Shift   2 Now you can jump to this line from anywhere by pressing Ctrl    number Ex  Ctrl   2

The bookmarks extension mentioned in the accepted answer conflicts with toggling breakpoints via the margin  You could do the same with breakpoints and select the debug tab on the left to see them listed  Better yet  use File  Preferences  Keyboard Shortcuts and set  Shift  Ctrl F9 to navigate between them  even across files

Both VS Code extensions can be used     Bookmarks    Numbered Bookmarks     Personally  I m suggesting   Numbered Bookmarks  with  navigate through all files  option     ctrl   Shift   P in VS Code In newly open field  type  Open User Settings  Paste this key value   numberedBookmarks navigateThroughAllFiles    allowDuplicates   allow duplicates of bookmarks    Or  paste this key value   numberedBookmarks navigateThroughAllFiles    replace    NOTE  Either way  be careful with shortcuts  Ctrl 1  Ctrl Shift 1     that are already assigned    Personally  mine were in 2 conflicts  with    VS Code shortcuts  that already exists  Ditto clipboard  I ve got paste on each call of bookmark

Visual Studio Code currently does not support bookmarks natively  Please add this as feature request to our Git Hub issue list  https   github com Microsoft vscode    In the meantime there are some ways to navigate around the code based on your navigation history  You can Ctrl Tab to quickly jump to previously opened files  You can also navigate within your code based on cursor positions using Goto   Back and Goto   Forward

If you are using vscodevim extension  then you can harness the power of vim keyboard moves  When you are on a line that you would like to bookmark  in normal mode  you can type  m  a-z A-Z  for a possible 52 bookmarks within a file  Small letter alphabets are for bookmarks within a single file  Capital letters preserve their marks across files  To navigate to a bookmark from within any file  you then need to hit    a-z A-Z   I don t think these bookmarks stay across different VSCode sessions though  More vim shortcuts here
