Method 2

You can also install visual studio code the other way suggested in official documentation.lets see it below.

  • Download Visual studio code for mac.
  • Double-click on the downloaded archive to expand the contents.
  • Drag Visual Studio Code.app to the Applications folder, making it available in the Launchpad.
  • Add VS Code to your Dock by right-clicking on the icon to bring up the context menu and choosing Options, Keep in Dock.

Launching visual studio code from command line

You can also run VS Code from the terminal by typing ‘code’ after adding it to the path.

  • Launch VS Code.
  • Open the Command Palette (F1) and type ‘shell command’ to find the Shell Command: Install ‘code’ command in PATH command.
  • Restart the terminal for the new $PATH value to take effect. You’ll be able to type ‘code .’ in any folder to start editing files in that folder.

Note: If you still have the old code alias in your .bash_profile (or equivalent) from an early VS Code version, remove it and replace it by executing the Shell Command: Install ‘code’ command in PATH command.

To manually add VS Code to your path, you can run the following commands

Start a new terminal to pick up your .bash_profile changes.

Note: The leading slash is required to prevent $PATH from expanding during the concatenation. Remove the leading slash if you want to run the export command directly in a terminal.
