VS Code - Add a new file under the selected working directory

Question

I\'m trying to get a shortcut to add a new file under my current working folder. So I navigate to the explorer using cmd+shift+e and when I get to the folder I want

Answer 1

You can use this method if you don't want to create a shortcut.

1. Navigate to the explorer via cmd+shift+e
2. Get to the folder you want to create a new file/folder in.
3. Open the file picker via cmd+shift+p
4. Then type New File or New Folder and enter.

That is how you create a new file/folder without touching the mouse. :)
