How can I find a file by name in Visual Studio Code?
A Visual Studio shortcut I'm used to is CTRL+,, but it does not work here.

When you have opened a folder in a workspace you can do Ctrl+P (Cmd+P on Mac) and start typing the filename, or extension to filter the list of filenames
if you have:
- plugin.ts
- page.css
- plugger.ts
You can type css and press enter and it will open the page.css. If you type .ts the list is filtered and contains two items.
Press Ctl+T will open a search box. Delete # symbol and enter your file name.
I believe the action name is "workbench.action.quickOpen".
It is CMD + P (or CTRL + P) by default. However the keyboard bindings may differ according to your preferences.
To know your bindings go to the "Keyboard Shortcuts" settings and search for "Go to File"
It's Ctrl+Shift+O / Cmd+Shift+O on mac. You can see it if you close all tabs
