The example in that vscode link can be replicated in emacs by:
1. having a single buffer open
2. C-x 2 (split-window-below)
3. C-x o (other-buffer)
4. C-x 3 (split-window-right)
5. C-x 3 (split-window-right)
6. C-x + (balance windows)
If that seems unwieldy you can also make a macro to automate such a thing or anything your imagination can come up with. Then any function you make (such as saving that macro to a name) can be bound to a keybinding of your choice.
