Yes I will concede that .net is not garbage. I have written code with it before and it's pretty average. It doesn't really give me anything that I can't do with Java or C++ (or other programming languages) So what I'm saying is that it doesn't really bring anything worthwhile to the table. VS Code. Yeah, I am not at all interested in an electron based code editor. And yet again, there is nothing new or novel here. There are dozens of other code editors that are free, cross platform, and very powerful. If they open sourced (or even released on multiple platforms) Visual Studio, then I'd take notice. Same for Office. > Wow it astounds me the lack of understanding coming from you. And I'm likewise astounded at all the people falling for microsoft's brainwashing PR bullshit.

There are dozens of other code editors that are free, cross platform, and very powerful. Again with the lack of understanding, Microsoft produced a new standard for editors called Language Server Protocol[0] that once implemented in an editor and for a language can be used across editors and IDEs. They are doing more contributions through VS Code than you realize. As for Open Sourcing VS I would love that but VS Code is snappy and awesome as it is so it doesn't bother me. VS Code with the right plugins (same can be said of Emacs, Vi etc) is amazing. For Dlang / Rust the best support I've seen for either language is for VS Code which is the youngest mainstream editor out there atm. Don't simply dismiss VS Code it's fame / usage speaks for it's own quality as a tool for editors. You even see in Sublime Text and Atom discussions that a number of people have just simply switched to VS Code. [0]: https://langserver.org/ https://langserver.org/

> VS Code. Yeah, I am not at all interested in an electron based code editor. Have you tried VS Code and decided it's bad or are you just being prejudiced?

  Yes. I've tried VSCode. It's better than atom, but I still prefer vim (neovim specifically) by a large margin.
