I've recently switched to VS Code full time for C# and Python development and I couldn't be happier. While I miss some of the more intelligent intellisense from full VS, I love that I can do all of my dev on OS X. Its integration with .NET Core makes my life easy; really can't complain at all.

I was curious to know how it worked for Python. I might have to give it a serious go...

  I wish it did a bit more in the way of completing methods on objects (it sometimes will, but only in super clear-cut situations), but outside of that it's solid. Completely replaced Sublime for me, outside of the subl command line.

Really, for c#? I assumed that the type-inferencing in and extension methods would make proper IDE support of C# on a "light" platform like vscode impossible. How do you manage your vcproj file?

  I figured the same! But it handles type inference, extension methods, using static, etc like a champ. Even does completion for project.json. I don't use vcproj since I just use dotnet core.

    I thought project.json got mothballed? Did they take another kick at it and make it work?

      Don't recall ever hearing it got mothballed during development - though I do believe they've bent over and are going to support csproj files with .NET Core in the future as well. Here's the relevant page on project.json: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/articles/core/tools/project-json https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/articles/core/tools/... Edit: I need to be better about deep reading through links. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/05/23/changes-to-project-json/ https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/05/23/changes-t... looks like project.json will be mothballed. Kind of.

        Project.json is getting pitched, but until the successor arrives, it's still the only way to do .Net Core dev.

  Both VS and VSCode use the Roslyn compiler to provide IDE functionality. https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn

Seconded, I've been writing c# with asp.net core solely on OSX for a few weeks now, I've not run into a single thing that I miss from full Visual Studio yet, living the dream!
