How do I show reference count in Visual Studio Code?

Question

I want to show references count in Visual Studio Code. How can I do it?

Answer 1

The menu structure ususally changes during years. So in VSCode v.1.43 please follow the next steps:

1. Click Gear icon and go to Settings

2. In the "Settings" window in the input field type "reference", click "User" tab, under "Extensions" click "Typescript" and find "Reference Code Lens" checkboxes for javascript/typescript.

Checking/unchecking checkboxes will automatically apply your changes.
