I still don't get the love ( real or manufactured ) for VS Code. There are far better tools to use on linux. On windows, you should use visual studio. VS Code doesn't make much sense unless you want to install additional spyware.
It's funny to see people say how "light" VSCode is when they use it as a glorified notepad for a few days. Then they install more and more extensions and then slowly VS Code evolves into Visual Studio.
- prepend 8y agoI like it because it is lightweight and runs similarly on windows and mac. And it’s free so a good compromise for people I work with who are deep in the IDE wars. I haven’t used it on Linux so can’t speak of that environment. I don’t code all day, so it’s a good drop in editor that doesn’t require paying a license, but has more functionality than vim.
