How to make vscode start with a blank file?

I want to use vscode instead of notepad. I prefer to type as fast as possible when launching vscode but i can't seem to find this option to do this. Does anyone know what this option is named after or if it's possible with a plugin?

This can by making a small tweak in vscode settings. All you need to do is open preferences and search for Startup editor. Under the Workbench section you'll find the Workbench: Startup Editor option. Change the value of this option to newUntitledFile.
