title: How to open VS Code from command line on macOS?
body: <p>I'm trying to figure out how to open the Mac version of VS Code from the terminal command line on my Mac and this <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29971053/how-to-open-visual-studio-code-from-the-command-line-on-osx">question</a> here says says to open the Command Pallete and issue either of these two commands:</p>
  <pre><code>shell command
  
  install code
  </code></pre>
  <p>On my computer, both commands result in the response &quot;No matching commands&quot;.  Do I need to install any special extensions to get this to work?  I'm running macOS 11.1 and VS Code 1.52.1.</p>
