Sometimes setting path from VS Code command palette does not work

Instead manually add your VS Code to your path:

1. Run in terminal

   sudo nano /etc/paths

2. Go to the bottom of the file, and enter the path you wish to add

3. Hit control-x to quit. Enter "Y" to save the modified buffer.

4. Restart your terminal and to test echo $PATH. You should something similar

~ echo $PATH /Users/shashank/.nvm/versions/node/v8.9.2/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin

Next time, you navigate to your project folder from terminal

Enter:

code .

or

code /path/to/project
