I currently use VS Code when developing on MacOS and Windows but it would be awesome if VS Code worked out of the box for FreeBSD my preferred development machine. Unfortunately the electron team doesn't really seem to care about FreeBSD, even though a bunch of FreeBSD devs are willing to do most of the work, and there's a $750 dollarsource bounty[1]. But maybe the VS Code team could help encourage the electron team to be more receptive of other platforms.

- dingo_bat 8y ago> bunch of FreeBSD devs are willing to do most of the work I mean the whole thing is on github. I'm sure electron will be happy to merge a pr.
- 2trill2spill 8y agoThey wont merge the pr unless FreeBSD is added to their CI infrastructure so it's properly supported. But the electron team doesn't want to do the work of adding FreeBSD to their CI. It puts FreeBSD in a catch 22 because either the electron team needs to allow access to the CI infrastructure to a few FreeBSD devs so they can do the work or the Electron team needs to do the work.
