Menu
VS Code is equally accessible from the keyboard. The most important key combination to know is Ctrl+Shift+P, which brings up the Command Palette. From here, you have access to all of the functionality of VS Code, including keyboard shortcuts for the most common operations.
You have to use the command palette (either press F1 or click View -> Command Palette...), then start typing Welcome and select Help: Welcome option.
This can now (May 2017) be accessed via the standard menu: Help -> Welcome
To show welcome page on startup: User Settings > Workbench > Startup Editor > Select 'welcomePage'
Go to the 'Help' tab in the top menu and then select 'Welcome'. Look at the bottom of the page and click the checkbox below that says 'Show welcome page on startup'.
It looks like the name of the welcome page got changed into "Get Started". To open the "Get Started" page:
Click in the menu:
Help -> Get Started
Or type in the command palette:
">Get Started"
