Sometimes setting path from VS Code command palette does not work
Instead manually add your VS Code to your path:
Run in terminal
sudo nano /etc/paths
Go to the bottom of the file, and enter the path you wish to add
Hit control-x to quit. Enter “Y” to save the modified buffer.
Restart your terminal and to test echo $PATH
. You should something similar
~ echo $PATH /Users/shashank/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.2/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin
Next time, you navigate to your project folder from terminal
code .
code /path/to/project
