View a bin file in a hex editor in Visual Studio Code

Chinese (Simplified) Language Pack for Visual Studio Code

I want to edit a binary file, but I don't want to use another tool other than Visual Studio because it's a pain to switch back and forth.

Is there perhaps an add-in or some built in functionality that can do that in Visual Studio?
