By going to VS Code they're jettisoning themselves from the .sln (solution file), .csproj (C# project file), MS Build world.
Project management and build files are being pushed into external utilities. This is kind of the way a lot of the rest the world (ruby/node/python) is going.
IDEs are fine, but when you remove the need for an integrated debugger in favor of TDD the need for an IDE diminishes.
- endgame 11y agoI would hardly say that TDD removes the need for an integrated debugger. Being able to inspect the state of a system the instant a test fails sounds mighty useful to me. Also, software builds being driven by an external tool has been common since at least make(1), so it's hardly a ruby/node/python thing.
- marktangotango 11y agoI've been the new guy on teams that did not use the ide for debugging (insanity in the Java world, right?) and was perceived to be a super star because of my ability to trouble shoot and drill straight down to root causes. Learn and use your tools people!
- pbz 11y agoBut VS Code does have integrated debugging...
