A have a small resolution on my PC so it's not very convenient to work in several tabs at the same time like: open console window, browser, code editor and some other stuff.

Console has a very cool feature: a transparent background, so it's very very comfortabe to type something in console while looking to some learning material in browser through the trasparent background.

So I guessed if there any way to make VS Code transparent so i can write code and research in browser at the same time not Alt-Tabing any time I have to switch, so I dont have to interrupt my workflow such often.
