Visual Studio Code's default status bar color is blue and I find it quite distracting. I used this extension to change the color but it has stopped working after the 1.10.2
update.
You can change the colour of the statusbar by editing the user settings by adding these lines of code in it:
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"statusBar.background" : "#1A1A1A",
"statusBar.noFolderBackground" : "#212121",
"statusBar.debuggingBackground": "#263238"
}
